Turn Arounds

Paintings revealing a surprising new form

and dimension when turned upside down

the protrusive becoming the recessive

and vice versa

Masculine and Feminine Waters

acrylics on canvas

20" x 20" (51 x 51 cm)

The triangular form or vector pointing upward

represents what is called by the kabbalah

the "feminine waters", the movement
or aspiration from below

to reach a spiritual height, such as in prayer.

Turning the painting upside down

transforms it to the "masculine waters",

the vector of bringing spiritual energy

into the "vessels" of the mundane world.

The Marriage Dance

acrylics on canvas

20" x 20" (51 x 51 cm)

Dance is an important element
in the Jewish wedding and symbol for the
dynamics of the marriage relationship,
if we use the Hebrew word for dance, "m'chol",
which also implies making a ring or circle.
Turning the painting upside down
we can see the "young couple" forty years later

Eyeless Peace Doves in the Middle East

acrylics on canvas

20" x 20" (51 x 51 cm)

The Doves are the universal symbol
for purveying Peace but when the painting
is turned upside down something
very ominous and catastrophic happens,

Ahmadinejad and a nuclear explosion!
