Art Journaling Chat & Challenge Sept 2015
I was having a hard time with smiles on the day I did this layout - couldn’t quite find any and was in quite a cranky mood. This page started out wondering about smiles and smiling… And, then I spent the day with my “little” (just turned 17!) friend Jesse decorating his family’s Sukkah and later having dinner together. And, I somehow found some smiles… Love that cute guy!
FYI: It is currently the Jewish Holiday of Sukkot and I always help my friend’s family decorate their Sukkah and share dinner with them.
From Wikipedia:
A sukkah is a temporary hut constructed for use during the week-long Jewish festival of Sukkot. It is topped with branches and often well decorated with autumnal, harvest or Judaic themes. The Book of Leviticus describes it as a symbolic wilderness shelter, commemorating the time God provided for the Israelites in the wilderness they inhabited after they were freed from slavery in Egypt.[1] It is common for Jews to eat, sleep and otherwise spend time in the sukkah. In Judaism, Sukkot is considered a joyous occasion and is referred to in Hebrew as “the day of our rejoicing” and the sukkah itself symbolizes the frailty and transience of life and its dependence on God.
