and shelter us in the shadow of Your wings

Martha Savage, an artist from New Haven, Connecticut, creates unique, signed art at an affordable price. This one-of-a-kind mixed media collage card is made on an actual timecard. It’s a 4.5”X4” blank card constructed with pH-neutral glue and sewn with linen thread. The card is collectible, mailable, giftable, and frameable. It features fresh, witty and poignant illustrations from vintage and antique children’s books, along with trinkets and stickers.

The diecut 'scrap' from: postcard from 1909 features a drawing by Jacob Keller depicting Jewish immigration to America. On the right (east) is a group of traditionally dressed Jews carrying their meager possessions while the symbol of czarist Russia hovers above. The richly dressed, smiling Jews of the west welcome their eastern brethren as does the Statue of Liberty. Overhead, a bald eagle carries a ribbon with a Hebrew quote from Psalms 17:8 – “and shelter us in the shadow of Your wings”.
