Ink & Colored Pencil on Bristol Board
Artist’s Statement: This piece represents the ritual hand-washing and the accompanying blessing “al netilat yadayim” I was inspired after searching for similar pieces and finding only instructional signs. Although many of them were beautiful and artsy, there was no art for art’s sake, and I saw a void to be filled. In creating this piece I aimed to fuse my modern, abstract and bright artistic style with a traditional subject matter to create a vibrant and exciting display of this important mitzvah.
