Mastering Artthe of Senior Living

SEPTEMBER 2017–DECEMBER 2018 5778–5779 Colors are a way of showing our feelings, mood and our understanding. I have learned so much about color and patience and developed an awareness of how I see and perceive. In my “Lost Autumn Love,” I was thinking about the changing colors of the leaves and their magic, richness and variety. I love this place by the water and its sense of solitude and peace. I can easily imagine fish, frogs waterlilies and a duck or two there. I thank the Lord above for allowing me to create this beautiful painting and accomplish this.

MY LOST AUTUMN LOVE: 2017, Gesso/Graphite/Oil on Paper, 14" x 11", Artist Rita O. Goldman

Rita O. Goldman I am honored, once again, to issue our annual community calendar demonstrating the extraordinary artistic skills of our amazing residents. The works included in this edition were created by individuals with little to no art backgrounds. Some of the residents are challenged by physical and cognitive decline, but the art inspires each in life, meaning and purpose. We are only too happy to share their unique artistic experiences with our community and supporters. In addition to this calendar, our resident artists have enriched our common areas and hallways, with beautifully framed original pictures. A selection of these have been chosen for public exhibition by San Francisco’s Art With Elders (AWE) program. While we continue to affirm life and the individualized attention of each and every one of our residents, we stay true to our mission of supporting those whose financial resources have been diminished. In our 68 years of service to the community, no one seeking housing, care or services within The Reutlinger has ever been asked to leave due to an inability to pay. The Resident Assistance Fund has supported hundreds of Holocaust survivors, Jewish families and Jewish residents throughout our history. When reviewing your philanthropic plans for the Jewish New Year, 5778, please consider a generous gift to the Reutlinger Resident Assistance Fund. Doing so will support the nearly $1.5 million dollars that we expend each year on this program. Your gift will also represent a mitzvah on your part as you follow the 5th Commandment by honoring your father and mother. Thank you for your consideration and support of our community. May you and your families enjoy the High Holiday season. From our family to yours, we wish you a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. L’Shanah Tova! Jay Zimmer President & CEO I like to express myself through art and I love making something new and different! It’s also good exercise for my hand. I learned in painting you have to overlap some colors in order to get the desired effect. I learned how to make ridges by drawing across, and then use an up and down motion in the brushstrokes to describe the face. I also learned you could get more depth by making the bushes smaller as they went back in space. When I finish a painting, I begin looking forward to my next one. When it's quiet, I think about what my next project will be…

IT'S GONNA RAIN: 2017, Graphite/Acrylic on Paper, 12" x 9", Artist Lucy Danzig

Lucy Danzig It’s my pleasure to once again welcome you to The Reutlinger Community! As the East Bay’s premier, Jewish skilled nursing, short and long term rehabilitation, and memory care community, we offer a supportive continuum of care that addresses both mind and body. We do so while safeguarding the dignity and independence of each and every resident who calls The Reutlinger home. Reutlinger residents celebrate friendship and life with stimulating activities such as our award-winning art program, as demonstrated in this splendid art calendar. Our full-time Rabbi, Debora Kohn, addresses the spiritual needs of our residents with classes, individualized guidance. as well as weekly, candlelight dinners and high holiday services. Whether residents are being pampered in our beauty salon, relaxing with family over coffee at our 24-hour café or catching up on the latest whodunit in the library, they benefit from our sense of “tikvah,” a philosophy that emanates from our passionate, innovative staff. Our stories, our spirituality, our sense of comfort, security and peace—they all stem from the efforts of this united team who are supported by transformative structural and program enhancements we were fortunate to make in recent years. Feedback from our families assures us that we’re continually ahead of the curve in offering the area’s gold standard for senior living environments. For that we are incredibly proud. But we never rest on our laurels; we’re continually striving to enhance every aspect of life here for our residents and their families. On behalf of the entire Reutlinger team, I thank you for your support and hope you enjoy this beautiful calendar! Andrea Campisi Marketing Director I was just thinking of getting something on paper when I started “Ladies Shopping Day for School Clothes.” There is the downtown, the girls, a flurry of pink and bright fabrics and a cold drink! It has turned out to be a hot picture; it’s feminine and it has a lot of movement! These are my favorite colors(and also green). Celia Christian

LADIES SHOPPING DAY FOR SCHOOL CLOTHES: 2017, Watercolor/Marker on Paper, 9" x 12", Artist Celia Christian Discovering the Artist Within at The Reutlinger Art changes how generations view themselves and ultimately how they live. After creating art and seeing people respond to it, the “olders” know they are leaving a legacy of life. Not only are they leaving a personal statement for their loved ones, they are modeling and mentoring all humans on longevity.

Longevity provides the opportunity for more time to learn, grow and discover.

The “youngers” have the good fortune of receiving this mentoring and realize their own longevity holds these possibilities of more time to learn, explore and have new adventures. This is a change of mind, heart and spirit from what our culture has taught up to now.

What greater gift could we possibly give and/or receive—than using all the time we have been given—to live?

I wanted to show there is life underwater because when we look at the surface of the ocean it’s not obvious. These are just a few of the thousands of species that reside there! I took these images from different sources and combined them to show their contrasting beauty and fill the painting with surprises! In a painting, every detail counts… the color, the shapes, every curve. Doing this artwork, my eyes have opened up; and, I have learned even more about looking out and enjoying the beauty of the world! Evelyn Ostreicher

In painting, what I find interesting is selecting which color I will place where: both on the page and also which color it is next to. Before I put something down on paper, the colors are just colors on a palette. The painting is a record of my choices.

(You go step by step up the stairs to the art room). It’s about looking forward to getting “there," to company and people who expect you to be there, and are looking forward to being with you! Working gives me a sense of extreme esteem. I appreciate pizazz…it’s a phenomenal gut feeling. In art class, everyone is painting and communing - with their results covering the walls and raising their voices. When you have strength (gezunt), it is obligatory to keep the world in a safe place! I wish my paintings to be shown for a superlative amount of good will on the earth.

The water gives me a soothing and serene feeling, and I liked reflecting on the warmth and sunshine and the way the sun pierces the strength of the rocks. It feels very creative to be able to see the vision of the scene, to draw and paint an interpretation and to learn different processes to achieve this. I’ve only been painting for four months—an unexpected experience which has captured me! I loved studying the connections between history and the arts. I played trumpet in marching and dance bands, sang solo in chorus on local radio and TV. I also taught and performed tap and ballroom dancing. Art is now providing those creative expressions in my life!

Then, I realized that the picture was but a small detail of a much larger painting. I learned that small segments of something larger can be interpreted, displayed and appreciated. In life, any large view can be segmented into smaller portions. This may be helpful when we think there is a major negative happening, for it may be broken down into smaller segments that can be positive.

In this painting, the movement is small and slow, not abrupt. You might feel it at night when you are quiet.

All of my favorite things and colors in nature were there— mountains , snow and water. These were also elements that were in my beloved home in Sweden. I especially love being in and around the water. I have much pleasure as I swim, kayak and sail over water. It is so refreshing and gives me much enjoyment!

I have done various kinds of artistic work for years, such as cake decorating, sewing and mosaics. During that time in my life, I was also involved in a community with a strong left wing social conscience which paved the way for me to join those fighting McCarthyism and many other unjust issues. I have been here almost one year, and am finding a place for my values, ethnicity (and artistic expression as a senior citizen). What a wonderful place to be at this age. Flowers are a universal language of friendship, appreciation, condolences and celebrations. Pick a flower from the vase, make a wish for good health, happiness, love, peace and prosperity!

The profile on the side of the mountain appeared as I was working and was a surprise! When I think of California, I think of the beach. Normally, I’m afraid of the water, but here, I went into the ocean up to my shoulders. The ocean brings me serenity…I love solitude and peace.

When I was a little girl of six or seven, we lived in a big house near a barn. This barn was the home for a number of owls, the size of chickens, which came home to roost there each night. Sometimes they would hunt and catch their prey. We could hear their fluttering wings as they flew back and forth. They slept during the day but when we went into the barn, they opened their big eyes… so we would sneak out soundlessly. My sister and I used to talk about them and the little things they did.

I saw them during the day, but I painted this one at night. As the light goes around, it shines on the tree, making the tree something special.
