  1. "#BruceDavid’s magnum opus is a #psychedelic #lithograph depicting practically the entire #Torah. Over eight months, #David filled it with a plethora of hidden symbols: If you look closely, you can see #Joshua blowing a #shofar, which hugs the #Israeliflag. Squint even more and you’ll notice Joshua’s face is the flared end of an even bigger shofar that encompasses the #TenCommandments, a shofar made up of dozens of small people, seven of whom hold flames as if making a human #menorah.

    To understand every hidden image in just this one #painting would take more words than I have space for. David gave me the “short version” of the piece’s story on Zoom — it still took six minutes.

    Although David has now spent decades making #Jewish #art#prints, #mosaics, #stainedglass and #metalworks — and exhibiting it across the country, it wasn’t what he had anticipated doing with his life."

    Something I did over the holidays :>

    Got really inspired by @neralis.bsky.social stained glass illustrations and wanted to try to combine it with something I love dearly, which is Ôkami - who could've guessed x3

  3. Article from @lawrencekstimes about the planned demolition of Smith Hall on #KU #Lawrence campus.

    I teach in this building and it needs to be renovated, not destroyed. The Religious Studies Library is one of my favorite spots on campus overall.
