Creation & Oneness
Standing strong in oneness, we co-create worlds. According to Kabbalah, our universe was created from the letters of the Alef Bet. And it all began with a single thought.

Springtime
As spring arrives, the clouds part, heralding rejuvenation and renewal in the gardens of love and hope. The Alef stands tall, excited for what the new season will bring.
Oneness United
In this world of many colors, a beautiful tapestry of diversity, the brilliant forces of love and joy prevail in drawing many together as One… in Oneness United.
The Adventurer
The Adventurer wanders the hills and horizon imparting a spirit of love and oneness wherever he roams. He stands proudly in the sunrise as he forges forward to explore regions unknown, ever closer to a beautiful, joyous destination.
Garden of Alef
In the garden, Eve, tempted by the forbidden fruit, was torn with uncertainty. She sensed that this challenge of free will would shape her destiny. The consequences of her actions altered lifetimes to follow. We since yearn to return to the paradise of Eden. Through our choices, we can get back there.
Day & Night
The luminaries of the sky, sun, moon and stars, shine in testimonial of Gd’s wonder. The sun’s healing rays, heralded each morning by the rooster’s crow, provide light and nourishment for all of nature. As we gaze into the night sky, the moon, with its glowing smirk, is our beacon along with twinkling stars, beckoning us to explore beyond the far reaches of our imagination.
Before the Beginning
This predominantly black, white and grey piece represents the primordial molten state of our earth before the beginning. One lone flaming Alef has yet to explode into vibrant depths of color and excitement of creation. The Alef stands alone on a hilltop, contemplative of its next stages of existence. It waits patiently for the Creator to reveal its mission to fill the world with light.
After the Rain
As the clouds part, a majestic rainbow emerges vibrantly in the sky. It stretches beyond all expanses of the imagination with colors and depth that capture the moment of pondering life in all its beauty. The rainbow represents optimism, ever present hope that in the storm’s aftermath will be times of joy.
The Flying Alef
From the time we’re born, our Neshama (soul) yearns to fly. It floats within our physical body, longing to be free of boundaries and inhibitions. This unique double piece abstractly demonstrates that our soul’s wings can take us far beyond our imagination, to the highest places of love and creativity.
Confusion
“Tohu VaBohu” is a biblical phrase (Genesis 1:2) describing the condition of the world before Gd said, “Let there be light.” In modern French, “tohu-bohu” is used as an idiom for “confusion” or “commotion”. Also, in colloquial German, ‘Tohuwabohu” means “great confusion”. This piece represents the beginning stages of creation with letters of the Alef Bet (Hebrew Alphabet) from which brilliant prisms of color exploded as the Master artist created the world.
Garden of Oneness
In this abstractly colorful garden, the Alef marches proudly in the sunshine. The garden represents renewal, hopes and dreams revisited after the rainclouds pass. Our world is filled with seeds under the surface waiting to sprout into beautiful flowers. We sow these seeds. We tend our garden. We watch it sprout as we experience oneness with all of Gd’s beauty before us to enjoy.
Seedlings of Creation
Kabbalistic texts speak of the world being created from Hebrew letters, seeds from which color and beauty emerged and formed all that was, is and will be. With each choice we make, we plant seeds within our own garden of life. As co-creators in our world, we lovingly nurture our garden. It grows! We watch in wonder as each blossom emerges in brilliant color.

Bird of Majesty
We share this beautiful, complete world with Gd’s colorful creatures. We can emulate the way they proudly display their colors in testimonial of the brilliant Creator. This “Bird of Majesty” rests comfortably and serenely on display, with not a care in the world.

The Four Elements
Earth, water, wind and sun comprise “The Four Elements” of this dimension, defying one another within their individual natures yet interdependent with each other as a source of life. Humans are genetically programmed to enjoy and appreciate the elements, and often underestimate the healing properties bestowed upon our world by the Creator.

The Mandarin
In all its glory, “The Mandarin” stands tall, poised with confidence. Its brilliant colors and breathtaking display are a testament of nature’s splendor and Gd’s ingenuity.
Day of Life
Starting with the utterance of the “otiyot”, the Hebrew Alef Bet, the Creator breathed life into this world, one day at a time… First adding heaven, earth and light, then the seas followed by the celestial bodies and vegetation; then all life forms.
