LINEAGE
Growing Peace Series
36” × 36” • Acrylic & Pastel on Gallery-Wrapped Canvas

Three women. Three generations. One unbroken story.

Lineage, part of my Growing Peace Series, explores the strength, faith and traditions passed from one generation of women to the next.

Three crowned figures emerge from a richly textured world of charcoal, gold, turquoise and violet. The Hamsa, Star of David and watchful eye become symbols of protection, spirituality and connection—threads linking past, present and future.

Are they grandmother, mother and daughter? Do they evoke generations of Jewish matriarchs? Or are they simply three women whose shared history transcends a particular time and place?

At the center, the youngest figure is surrounded by the women who came before her—protected by them, yet poised to carry their story forward.

Lineage is ultimately about what we inherit and what we choose to pass on: faith, wisdom, strength, love—and peace.
