I’ve started a new art challenge along with a group of Jewish artists on FB. The goal is to do a quick painting in about 30 minutes, with a Jewish theme for the month of January. I really want to explore some biblical scenes and personalities so, for my first painting I chose a scene that I find incredibly powerful and moving, as a mother…

I hope the subject is obvious but for those who are not familiar with it, it’s baby Moses and his mother  Yocheved, right before she sets him afloat on the Nile to save him from Pharaoh’s soldiers. This 9×12″ watercolor took close to an hour, so I will have to try to simplify my subject matter next time!
