Description
How this painting emerged
This contemporary Moses painting shows Moses on Mount Sinai. A swirling colourful aura surounds him as he holds the two tablets of the Law. While out walking the dog one evening, I glimpsed an abstract painting through a window, and this inspired me to make this artwork. The picture I saw was a blur of shapes and colour but in my mind it was the form of Moses. Later I painted it exactly as I imagined it. The swirling sky emerged during the creative process and represents divine energy connecting Moses with heaven and earth.
This is a companion piece to Parshat Yitro , which has a similar style, both in the swirling sky and in the use of colour.
About this print
The colours will probably look slightly different in the actual print than on your screen, but the print will be as faithful as possible to the original artwork.
This is a museum-quality digital reproduction of an original painting. While being digital, this is not an automatic process: I work with the same printer I’ve used for years, Hannah Kamil, who does excellent work! Your print will be made specifically for you once you’ve placed your order. When I receive it from Hannah, I check that it’s truly up to standard before wrapping it carefully and sending it by trackable, express post.
