Collection of the artist


I had been painting this image of a cloud filled with letters which rained down...I had no idea where it came from but for years it would appear in my drawings and collages. 

Then my teacher showed me lines in the Zohar which describe a place in the upper heavens where there is a cloud filled with certain Hebrew letters. The cloud drips dew on the souls of the Tzadikim, the holy wise ones, as they make their passage from one life to the next.
