Artist’s Statement: Market Day in Shtetl Zabludoff in old Poland, based on the stories of Sholom Aleichem and Isaac Bashevis Singer.

In memory of the burned, destroyed Jewish shtetls that give me no rest . . .

Artist’s Statement: Israel is comparable to a dove.

Artist’s Statement: Break through the barriers! Sometimes infinity can be found within the coarse physical earth.

Artist’s Statement: This painting was my first attempt at painting the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory. I had not seen any paintings of this photo before, and I was inspired by his intense concentration and devotion while studying the Torah.

Artist’s Statement: In my painting, I convey the love of Torah study.

Acrylic on Stretched Canvas

Artist’s Statement: I was so inspired by the story of Choni the Circle-Maker and the miracle of rain that I wanted to portray the story on canvas. In my painting, Choni stands in his circle under the blazing hot, dry sun. But over to the left are the dark clouds and rain approaching . . .

Digital Art

Artist’s Statement: In contrast to other images of the parting of the Red Sea during the Exodus, here the viewer is not off in the distance, objectively watching people swarm across... The viewer is there, part of the first group, being asked to make the decision to cross and trust that G‑d will hold back the waters. Freedom is offered, but it is a scary unknown. One must truly abhor slavery, must truly yearn for freedom, to take that step. This piece requires a leap of faith and deep, subjective involvement, unlike many of my more passive, objective pieces. This work uses "painterly" effects to depict the almost violent power, passion and drama of the event.

Artist’s Statement: This is one of six windows I created for a Chabad center in New Jersey, based on the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s mitzvah campaigns.
