Tonight, a finished painting called Shabbat UU

“An artist cannot be continually wielding a brush. An artist must stop painting at times to freshen his or her vision. Living is also an art. We dare not become so absorbed in its technical processes that we lose our consciousness of its general plan. The Sabbath represents those moments when we pause in our brushwork to renew our vision. Having done so, we take ourselves to our painting with clarified vision and renewed energy. This applies to the individual and to the community alike.”
- Mordecai Kaplan


This is the text that is on the top part of the painting I just finished tonight.

I'm in a class currently about living a balanced life and our "home play" last week was to come up with a few things that we would like to do and then pick one and Do IT! so I did, I finished this painting that has been waiting for a while. Enjoy!

Shalom.
