Every year the song of the Shofar calls to awaken us and return us to our path to G-d.
Erev Shel Shoshanim, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Erev Shel Shoshanim is an Israeli love song that was played at my mother’s confirmation and eventually the inspiration for my name. The title translates to “Evening of Roses”
English translation of the lyrics:
It is an evening of roses
Let us go out to the garden
Myrrh, Spices, and Frankincense
Are as a carpet under your feet
Night falls gently
And a wind of roses blows
I’ll whisper a soft song for you
A song of pure love
Dawn and the dove coos
Your hair is full of dewdrops
Your lips are as roses unto the morning
I will pick them for myself
Night falls gently
And a wind of roses blows
I’ll whisper a soft song for you
A song of pure love
Etz Chayim, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Etz Chayim isbased on Proverbs 3:17-18
English translation of the lyrics:
A tree of life to those who hold fast to it,and all who cling to it find happiness.
Its ways are ways of pleasantness,
and all its paths are peace.
Help us and guide us, inspire us and provide us
With the wisdom Your Torah can show.
Cause us to learn, renew and return,
Just as in days of old.

L’chah Dodi, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Come my Beloved to greet the bride
The Sabbath presence, let us welcome!
That is the translation of the Hebrew you see. The paintings is named for one of my favorite Hebrew songs in which
the Sabbath presence is depicted as a beautiful bride.
The Midrash teaches that G-d told the newly created Sabbath, ‘Israel shall be your mate.’ So when the Sabbath comes each week She advances toward Israel as if meeting her groom under the wedding canopy.
In my painting, the Bride wears a veil of the heavens the Moon lighting her way. She is drawn toward a little house in which Shabbat candle s are lit.

Damsel Fish, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Technically it’s not a real Damsel Fish. It’s an artistic iterpretation of one. I really hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed painting it.
A Strange Land, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
I wanted to capture an uneasy feeling of an unknown place….I think I got it…funny thing is, you begin to fall in love with it’s strangeness and want to escape there.
