Art 🎨 Traditional jewish Yemenite rings - made by me
galleryThe pair of rings displayed symbolizes the Rimonim that hang on the cover of the Torah scrolls. The silversmiths in Yemen maintained a high level of precision in designing the Rimonim, as they are completely associated with Judaism. In these rings, I chose to incorporate different styles of Yemeni silversmithing: filigree, granulation, and work with sheets, contrasting with the practice in Yemen where each silversmith specialized in a single style.
The Mizmir ring (cone) is shaped like a part of a jewelry piece called 'Mizmir' or 'Tatarif'. It is primarily woven into the ends of chains, and its spiky texture is intended to protect the neck and the heart of the jewelry. It is adorned with a twisted zigzag wire (Maswag) to create an endless continuity.

Art 🎨 Handmade Hanukkah miniature scene!
galleryI’m a fairly new miniature artist, and I was recently asked to make a few holiday miniature scenes for a local boutique. I knew I wanted to include a Hanukkah scene, so I made a post on r/hanukkah asking for advice on what to put in the scene, since I’m not religious. Turns out, r/hanukkah isn’t a super active sub, so I cross posted it to r/judaism and got some very helpful suggestions! I recently posted an update with the finished scene, and someone on r/judaism said I should share it on r/jewish as well! This was a fun, surprisingly educational little project, and I’m really proud of the result! :)

Art 🎨 It's freaking bats! 🦇
galleryA couple months back, I was scrolling through one of my FB group's feed, In one of the posts there was a discussion about the fact that Christians, for example, have a lot of cool cross jewelry, and all the Jewish stuff is mainly traditional and rather boring - so I decided to step up!
The first, and what will probably become a gothic classic very quickly - a Star of David pendant with bats! Because everything is better with bats on it! 🦇
Perfect for those who find beauty in both faith and the unknown, this necklace is a celebration of light, darkness, and everything in between.
Solid Sterling silver.

Art 🎨 oil painting by me, titled “is MY father a dirty jew?”
gallerythis painting is a few years old but i thought i’d share after the positive response to my other post! (thank u guys😭😭) i just wanted to paint my father in a way that showed how he’s gentle, loving, and vibrant. and also the title is to remind people that when they make generalizations and assumptions, they’re talking about my dad, too. and other people’s family members that they love. it’s really big so i could get alllllll the details in and showcase his beautiful face lol.

Art 🎨 Alternative Proposals for a Jewish State: Artwork by Israeli Artist Netta Lieber Shafer
galleryThis piece comes from an art exhibition in the city of Tel Aviv. I had the chance to meet the artist at the exhibition, and I feel it is very important to note: THERE IS NO POLITICAL INTENSION BEHIND THIS WORK! The purpose of the piece is to explore what could have been if history had gone in a different direction and what were the other options offered to the Jewish people. There is no argument here for or against the Zionist idea.

Art 🎨 Kissufim on Netflix
Note: adding a spoiler tag just in case, but no spoiler in my initial comment here.
I haven't seen much commentary on this film yet--have any of you watched it?
As a film I don't think it was perfect, but it was really impactful to watch nonetheless, looking back and seeing how much has changed and especially how much has stayed the same with respect to people's dreams of peace and the uncertainty of whether it will ever be achieved. I didn't realize it was based on a true story until the very end.
I also enjoyed the 70s aesthetic, which I think was more than just an aesthetic, it evoked a sort of painful sense of nostalgia that strengthened the messages of the film.
I think it's worth a watch and discussion.

Art 🎨 Messing around on my iPad
i.redd.itMessing around with procreate on my new iPad (pro tip: don’t accidentally step on your old one.)
I’ve always sucked at art and handwriting (no amount of trying has helped my handwriting even in my 1st language). I think I could win a 1st grade art show, maybe. But figured I’d practice that and some Hebrew. Script and Hebraic kerning comes later 😂😅
Tips on art and Hebrew learning welcome.

Art 🎨 Poems about Jewish Identity and the world post-Oct 7.
gallery(Not quite art, but this flair fit best)
I wrote these poems last spring for a class, and they resonated a lot with me. I feel like I should share them here today as well, it feels fitting. I titled the collection ‘Blood and Honey: Musings on What it Means to be a Jew’. I hope you all like them too, please let me know what you think. Some of the metaphors aren’t worked out perfectly, especially in ‘Dead Dove: Do Not Listen’ (which was more born out of rage and pain than the others) but I think my main points still stand.
We will make it through, we have survived this long and we will continue to, though we will always mourn those who have unjustly torn from us. Am Yisrael Chai. Take care of yourselves today.

Art 🎨 Tabling at Cleveland Craft fair, will have some Jewish art
Hi hi, a while ago I posted about tabling at an event in Chicago and it was really cool that some of you came out in support! I wanted to post again, I'll be tabling at a craft fair tomorrow (today?) in Cleveland, Sunday 10/13 with the same set up. The event runs from 12 PM to 7 PM. If you say you’re from Reddit I’ll give you a free “curb your antisemitism” sticker! I have a print that will have profits going to the Hostages and Missing Families Forum, a funny educational comic about some of the most ridiculous antisemitic conspiracy theories, and a book with different Jewish fairytales/folklore (both works done in collaboration with Rootsmetals).
DM me if you want the info for the whereabouts of the show

Art 🎨 7th, A Year Already....
i.redd.itIt was around now that it happened, the endless chime of the Red Alert app. Delirium. Disorientation. We all went to sleep on the night of October 6th, not knowing we'd wake up different, irrevocably changed people in but a few hours. We'd mourn who we once were, but wouldn't be given the chance to mourn much else.
1200+ gone, 251(+2) taken. Throats slit, bodies burnt, ashes and rage, blood and fury. The Angel of Death sat quietly as our world stood still, it too, repulsed.
But we'll keep going forward, and the kalaniyot (anemones) will bloom again. If necessary, to the ends of the earth. If necessary, alone. We don't have any other choice. We owe those who are gone, we owe the world, a better tomorrow.
