Parshas Chayei Sarah

 

 When Eliezer was looking for a wife for Yitzchak, he asked Hashem to send him a sign when he finds the right girl.  The sign was to be that when he asks for water to drink who ever offers to put water out for his camels as well will be the one.

Hope you have a wonderful Shabbos!

PARSHAS VAYEIRA

In this weeks parsha we learn that even though Avraham Avinu had just had a bris, he was still desperate to have guests to perform the Mitzvah of Hachnasas Orchim.  His tent is described as having 4 openings so that guests could in come from any direction!

I tried to coat the outside with chocolate.  

It didnt work so I left them plain instead.

Enjoy!

Hashem promises Avraham that his descendants will be as many as the stars in the sky and the dust in the earth (so many that you cant count them).

Emily Carr (1887-1986)

Emily Carr was a Canadian artist and writer.  Most of Carr's early paintings portrayed the Indian cultures that she encountered on her visits there.  Most of Carr's later paintings reflected her desire to capture the spirit of the forest.

In this class we took her themes of the forest and painted them using watercolours. 

First we practiced some watercolour techniques...

from dark to light

and then learning to blend colours...

and finally the final pictures...
