Wisdom - the Letter Yud

Wisdom is the consciousness, the point of light at the time of our birth begins our awareness in a new vibration outside of our mother’s consciousness to that light to G-d.
Yud is the word for the prismatic light through crystal skies, descending in color to our being joining soul and nature of life and light that is
our soul.
Through this letter, through this painting, through Anna’s love and light, I am blessed to experience renewal of that higher reality of chaos, tenderness and understanding. Reply

My beautiful friend Anna. You have the spark of B”H in your heart, soul and essence of your being. You have a talent and gift to express such an important g-dly communication— the letters of his Language. I have a few of your letters on my home walls. I feel surrounded by B”H. Safe and protected. We are truly blessed to have you in our Jewish community Reply

What appreciation I have for the sacred letters... The magnificent and humble yod with a gematria of 10 - perfection!
On the right, the yod, similar to manna, descends like bread from heaven. On the lower left there is the Tabernacle suggestive of my favorite celebration Sukkot. My heart thinks of the Millennium with Messiah at the helm in Jerusalem, renewing this perfection and completeness for the world. The colours and tone of this piece are cooling with points of light revealing that glorious day, serenely, but also hope of that restful beauty. Thank you for being a point of light, Anna.

Anna Gil the Artist. Anna Gil, the woman of Light in her being and artistry. So very proud of you, my beautiful love girl. Brava (feminine) G-d has made Divine what springs from your heart to your canvas and ah, those fingers and hands give Light to all of us fortunate enough to partake of this sacred gift. May all blessings surround you and all which evoke you onto the next plane of your work. i am waiting - we are all awaiting. i heard yesterday a saying: Beijos no seu coracao. (Kisses on your heart). You touch my soul with your Art and your Reverence; the Reverence in these Letters of Light. Reply

Anna's paintings all talk to your innermost thoughts as well as your neshema. The are thought provoking. Her artwork is inspiring and beautiful. Not just as oil on canvas, it goes deeper... to your core. And, it opens up all sorts of wonders. Something as simple as the letter Yud, 10th letter of the alef-beit, reveals the G-dly part of your neshema, the light, the spark, the flame of how each one of us carries the light of Hashem within us. It inspires you to stop, look and listen to the holiness that resides in each one of us. And it wakes up the question of how will I use this spark to better my life and that of others. Reply

I am fascinated by the creative ways we each communicate our love, wisdom, and passion with others - through music, words, cooking, dance, and paintings. Anna, your piece is so beautiful and soulful. What a deeply moving reminder to all of us to be "looking for the Yud" in everything around us. I look forward to exploring more of your incredible talent. Reply

Anna, you are a blessing in your own right! Your Yod painting is inspired and complex. I am thrilled to be your new friend. We have a lot to learn and share with each other. Thanks for this image. Reply

A Woman of Letters Anna Gil's extraordinary artwork speaks for itself. Her "Letters of Light" are spiritual guideposts to a deeper understanding and appreciation of the power of the Almighty and the beauty of the physical world. Her work is reflective of the firm foundation from which all of her colors and shapes spring: the inestimable gift of prayer, meditation and an ongoing study of scripture and liturgy. Reply

Someone once said music is food for the soul and rightfully so, as the visual song of Anna's art sings to mine. The siren song of her Letters of Light not beckoning towards the rocks but revealing the way. Reply

I love this!! I so love Anna's work. I especially love this painting. Maybe I'm partial to "yud". But I love the colors. I feel calm and happy when I look at it. Reply

B"H for all his gifts. Reply
