About Author Christine A.Davidson
From 1984 to 1994, Christine A. Davidson taught religious and secular courses in her home to her own teenaged children and to other youth. She has raised four children who are happy, responsible, faithful adults, making positive contributions to society. After September 11, 2001, she created a website, www.epicworld.net, to promote family unity by reviving the tradition of dinnertime conversation, or “dinner talk”. In early 2002 she began offering dinner table talk resources, drawing from the classics, the Old and New Testament, and the Book of Mormon, then wrote Epic Stories for Character Education, coming in September. The purpose of this book is to help families find peace of mind in the principled way of life taught in the Holy Scriptures. Hhow better to have peace of mind than to follow the Prince of Peace?

   Davidson wrote“Brothers Brave”, a musical pageant about epic heroes from pre-Columbian America, to be performed in outdoor amphitheaters by families everywhere, as the ultimate character education activity. In 1988 she began writing fiction to awaken youth to their heritage and identity in Western Civilization.     All of her adult life, Davidson has studied symbolic types and patterns of history, particularly that pertaining to the house of Israel. She spent two summers in Mexico on student tours and filled a teaching appointment in Argentina for two years in the late sixties. In July of 1994 she investigated archaeological sites in Central America. She speaks Spanish as a second language.

About Artist Donna Thomas


    Donna Thomas found her talent for art at an early age, spending most of her spare time drawing and sketching in pencil. In High school she took every art class that was available, winning several awards, including a summer art scholarship at Western Illinois University. Later Donna took art courses at Joliet Junior College and Rock Valley College, earning awards and recognitions for her work. Although she has worked in all mediums, it was after taking private oil painting lessons from a local artist that she found a preference for painting in oil.

Donna continues to work in oil, trying to create work that promotes feelings of peace and appreciation for the abundant gifts that God has given us. Her work tends toward bright, uplifting colors, with attention to detail and sharpness, which lends to the realistic quality of her work. Also, her ability to use light and shadows effectively creates a three dimensional look. Her pictures have been said to create a place where the viewer longs to be, and a feeling of being able to walk right into the scene.

Donna's experience ranges from small detailed paintings to as large as 3'x 5' paintings. She has been commissioned to do customized paintings such as portraits, animals and landscapes, including a book cover and illustrations for author C.A.Davidson. Donna has customized her work to accommodate specific color schemes, size, medium and subjects for her customers, working from a photograph or group of photographs to creating original compositions.
