Original acrylic mixed media painting on canvas

The focus of HaTorah is on the Hebrew blessings recited before and after a Torah reading. The prayer said before the reading can be found on the canvas cloth to the right. The blessing recited after the Torah portion is completed appears on the canvas panel to the left.

These prayers are recited by the person who has the honor of being called up to stand before the Torah scroll during the reading of a portion of the Torah. This is called an Aliyah.

The handmade book, at the top of the painting, displays both of these two blessings in Hebrew, along with the English transliteration. Both the cloth panels and the book are sewn onto the textured background canvas. The signature and date appear on the side.
