This painting is not for sale
The painting is about everybody who has immigrants in their ancestry. I have been commenting on what goes through me as I paint. Comments in this blog go back to December when a most unexpected notice was given it. My posting was picked up by Google and listed next to other references to my great grand father. Then a long lost cousin's son saw it and called me. I found a whole branch of my family. And I learned that they have developed the family dreams portrayed in the painting like singing, watercolor painting, writing books. But not in Israel at the old home place. In Tel Aviv a high rise apartment building is being built next to where the family lived. Recently there was an accident and the arm of the crane broke, fell and demolished the old house. Israel like everywhere is stretched to the limit as our populations increase and increase. New events make me want to add more people and the laborers to the painting.

WE WERE STRANGERS. NOW WE ARE UNITED AS COUSINS AND PAINTERS
"Come back another day." she said.
"I'll just wonder around for awhile and I'll come back. I went out into the court yard and painted two birds, one a wild pigeon in flight and the other a canary in a cage. When I returned to my 81 year old cousin's bed I began to paint her. She said "I paint." and she opened up and talked about the past. Then we had a wonderful hug.
