A person's connection to a work of art is highly personal: we like a piece because it speaks to us in some way. When the art itself is built around a message, especially a timeless message from sacred texts that expresses our wishes, prayers or values, the connection is even more powerful.

In her art, Risa Towbin Aqua uses calligraphy, color and her unique style to create beauty in the presentation that is equal to the inherent beauty of the message. All of her prints use beloved verses from sacred texts and are appropriate for a variety of life-cycle events.

These 8" x 10" prints are perfect as gifts or for hanging in your own home.
