"WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN EGYPT"

Rivian in front of "We All Have Our Own Egypt"

The mixed-media piece shown is "WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN EGYPT" my most recent piece that was in an invitational show that opened March 9, 2011 at the GOTTHELF GALLERY, Lawrence Family J.C.C San Diego. 

“WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN EGYPT” is Inspired by THE EXODUS, the parting of the red sea. The torn canvas represents the sea. The Swarovsky  crystals & gold leaf  symbolize the JEWISH PEOPLE having been freed from Egypt & making their way to “The PROMISED LAND”, ISRAEL. Written in Hebrew on the golden path is “He Set Them Free”

Painted in the sky is, (in Hebrew, “BLESSED ART THOU….” & painted in English, “Blessed art thou o Lord….”

‘THE SUN IS RISING TO A BRIGHTER DAY!”

Newton Avelino made me aware of his ART by commenting on my BLOG.  He is a new artist to me from Brazil. I don't understand his language however I appreciate him responding to my request for comments. I looked him up and like his work so here are some examples for you to see.  I find his work very contemporary and creative, something different and fun!

Newton Avelino

O esboço da missão deste artista brasileiro, norte-riograndense por decisão divina, se inicia em 1960, no berço de uma família cuja convivência com a arte é feita de poetas escritores, cantores, pintores, artistas gráficos, com formações e informações Diversas,foi dessa vivência e da sua aguçada observação das cenas do cotidiano que Newton Avelino extraiu as tintas que viriam compor o seu inconfundível universo criativo e plástico.
