Description
This dervish spins with the star from the luterose orb in his hand. This Luterose Window emerged from feelings of doubt and confusion surrounding events unfolding in the world. The Hebrew words came into my mind: "Sovev kol HaSibot", one of the Names of God which means "Spinner of All the Reasons". It allowed me to relinquish my doubts to that Source. This piece was created in Portland, Oregon where it was placed out in the acid rain, which engendered the "cosmic" patina. The luterose fretwork here represents the Earth. It is framed in rough fir I found at a Habitat for Humanity ReStore. The original etching is 31.5" x 17.75"

Art is unquestionably one of the purest and highest elements in human happiness. It trains the mind through the eye, and the eye through the mind. As the sun colours flowers, so does art colour life. -- Congratulations on your recent sale of this wonderful work
