About this title

About the Author:

Adam Rhine has been creating ornate, highly detailed Judaic watercolor paintings since 1999. His style is heavily influenced by medieval illuminated manuscripts, and he combines that inspiration with modern palettes and aesthetics. Rhine's book, Hebrew Illuminations, is a collection of all 22 Hebrew illuminated letters as well as 22 of his most well-known Magen David paintings. It also includes art from his sketchbook and text descriptions of the meaning behind each design. Rhine's artwork illustrates the covers and chapters in the three-book educational series Celebrating the Jewish Year by Paul Steinberg.

Adam is very excited to be venturing into the coloring book field. He says, The act of creation brings us closer to G-d in ways unique to each of us. It is a blessing to fulfill and enjoy as we bring beauty and meaning to this world through visual expression. It is my sincerest wish that you join me on this artistic mission by bringing your own spirit and soul to these designs.
