The Spiritual Collection - 

I think of my paintings as metaphor - new layers of meaning, inspired or evoked by the words of classical Jewish texts. In other words, I am not attempting to illustrate or provide a visual translation of the text, but rather to offer a visual response, a new medium for metaphor to get at other dimensions of meaning concealed within the words. Artist Ruth Feldman

Ruthie Feldman, aka Dr. Ruth Pinkenson Feldman and the Green Bubbie, is a believer in the creative power in each of us to be lifelong learners. Ruth has moved from representationalism to abstract expressionism in her paintings and layered meanings in her collages. She finds the interpretations viewers bring to her works endlessly intriguing and a strong motivation for her continued development as an artist.
