Judaica, Artwork, and Jewelry from Jerusalem

About Our Artwork and Artists

Microcalligraphy

Daniel

The art form whose brushstrokes are the very words of the Bible.

The art of MicroCalligraphy was developed over 700 years ago by the scholars of Spain. What greater art form and what more eloquent medium could one choose, than the Word of G-d itself?

The Blessing Series

Three Soldiers Praying

There is nothing more uplifting than a blessing, nothing more lyrical than prayer.

Our artists have attempted to present these scriptural blessings in a clothing of artistic vision and glorious color.

Ellen Horowitz

Joseph

"Shepherds of Israel Series," by Ellen Horowitz of the Golan

Amidst expansive wilderness and breathtaking landscapes, the shepherds of Israel experienced an aloneness accompanied by roaring silence.

This place, where inspiration was found and character developed, allowed for Judaism's greatest heroes to emerge.

Bracha Lavee

Ashira

Bracha captures the warmth one generally associates with tapestry and the attention to fine detail typical of oil painting. She has thus found a unique way to combine Judaic symbols with scenery.

Most of Bracha's works are large and decorative and can be found in both private collections and public settings.

Shorashim offers prints of her most sought after works.

Rebecca Shore

Mountains Around Jerusalem

Rebecca Shore, originally from New York, moved to Israel in 1984 and now lives with her husband and children in the Old City of Jerusalem.

She specializes in Jewish children's artwork, which combines her passion for Judaism with her flair for colorful, enchanting visual design.

Ruti Gaon

Dates & Pomegranites

Ruti Gaon is an American-Israeli artist, in Israel about 13 years, originally from the American Southwest. Earned an MFA in Studio Art, Painting and Drawing from Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX.

Biblical to modern Israeli themes.

Shorashim offers prints of her original works from pastels, colored pen, and watercolor.

Poster Art

Red Sea Crossing

The Poster Art here attempts to display both the faith of the Jewish people and the thread of continuity that ties us to both the past and the future redemption.

David Yochanan

David Yochanan

David Yohanan was born in Tiberias (Teveria), Israel in 1971. He was viewed as a child prodigy and was enrolled in the Betzalel School of Art in Jerusalem, while also pursuing his Torah studies in a Jerusalem yeshiva.

In addition to his classical artistic skills, he also developed a mastery of Jewish Scribal Art.

This unusual mixture has contributed to his unique style of blending the words of Torah with magnificent imagery.
