Camille Sitting On The Beach At Trouville

Yemenite Jewish children, Sana'a, Yemen, Circa 1909. By Hermann Burchardt.

חג סוכות שמח לכולם! 🌿🍋 I hope everyone is having a great Sukkot, and getting time to relax in their Sukkah (the struggles of living in an apartment are real during this holiday 😭😭). But I’m excited to go visit other people and their sukkahs they built, it’ll be fun! I hope everyone has had a meaningful Jewish holiday season (the holidays never seem to end, neither does the food). And I hope everyone gets a nice start to the cool October weather! I know I’ve missed it. 🍁🍂🌝🎃☕ #sukkot #chagsameach #happyholidays #sukkah #סוכות #חגשמח #חגים #יהודים #סתיו #שמח #jewish #judaism #october #happyoctober #fall #autumn #pumpkins #imissedthecoolweather

How does your garden grow? 

Not very tall, if it’s full of dachshunds.

This peculiar illustration comes from the guest book of the Hewitt family, the founders of the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum. The book spanned more than 50 years and included signatures and more involved artwork and poems.

Lacking context or explanation, “Dachshund Nursery” was probably done by Caroline King Duer, a frequent visitor to the Hewitt’s Ringwood Manor, in 1896. Learn more from cooperhewitt‘s blog.

Sorry Chris Pratt, but Indiana Jones probably won’t be recast

If Indiana Jones producer Frank Marshall has his way, no one but Harrison Ford will ever pick up Indy’s whip and fedora.

Happy Inktober! I was just playing around with some of my new inks and gauche from Winsor and Newton. I love my new stuff! #art #drawing #inktober http://ift.tt/1YRYqi6

Frank W. Benson - Summer of 1909

“This tragic and appalling story emerges well from this volume. It is a most important contribution to a little-known aspect of the genocide of the Jewish people during the Second World War and will become the standard work on the subject, illustrating clearly the whole character of the Romanian genocide.”

Meeting with the Jewish Shepherd Avraham Herzlich in the field with his goat outside Tapuach (at צומת תפוח)

Today I bought a siddur for Shabbat and weekdays which we also use in both synagogues I’m going to. I have no clue yet when to recite which prayers at home but I hope I will learn it soon. (Help is warmly welcome!)

Mandalas and things are starting to fall together for the next open studios. A new series of work will be on view October 3 & 4 at the Los Angeles Brewery Art Walk! (at Brewery Art Los Angeles)
