Hey, thank you! It’s lovely. I would love to buy a print. For me, the star is definitely on top of the blue. But as I study it, the bottom is higher than the top, so the Magen David is pointing the way (to the future, to the heavens) which is as it should be.
Thanks Laura, I’m glad you like it. I’ll certainly get you a print, Mike Reed has a very high end printer, I’ll print it on archival paper.
One of the problems with working on screen is the RGB (projected light) spectrum gives you colors that are saturated beyond what you can achieve with CMYK (reflected light/print). So we might lose something in the translation. I’m looking forward to experimenting with the output, because I do eventually want to sell prints here.
I was a little nervous about presenting someone else’s religious symbol in such a “grungy” fashion. But I see it as representing something ancient, with a patina of history and still glowing.

When you look at this, do you see the star as being cut out of the blue so you are looking through to a lower level or is the star on top of the blue?
