"Hagbah"
The idea came into my mind first as a picture when I was reading a small phrase in the Siddur during Sukkos. Lifting the Torah up and the Etz Chaim is representative of all the things we learn inside, so it sprouts into a tree.
This isn't the best photograph but I was anxious to put it online. This is one of the ideas for the next painting. Either this or the one of Moses' hands after he drops the tablets.

On our Facebook page we have a feature called “Tree of Life Tuesday”, where each week we feature a photograph or beautiful image of a tree of life.
I found your website with the Hagbah beautiful tree image, and with your permission, I would like to feature the photograph on our page.
