Elspeth Young: Painting Lesser-Known Heroes

LDSPMA/Elspeth Young Season 5 Episode 2

Elspeth has been a full-time Artist of Al Young Studios since 2002. Her paintings seek to celebrate lesser-known heroines and heroes of everyday life whose courage and devotion evince the deepest reverence for Deity. Each painting is intended to invite others to look Heavenward in order to solve life’s challenges, and appreciate the majesty of the individual in all races and cultures.

Her training includes a lifetime of study and collaboration in the family studio of her father, Al R. Young, as well as a baccalaureate degree in Visual Art from Brigham Young University, from which she graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2003.

Working primarily in oils, her original artworks and reproductions are permanently displayed in temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, museums, and private residences. Reproductions of her work also appear in numerous books and publications.
