The name of this painting in Hebrew means “welcome sabbath” which can apply to any religion.
I used a stained glass effect to represent my Judeo-Christian life influences.
Her bowed head represents humility.
All the colors used are common in all religions; the red in Buddhism, white in Hinduism, blue in Kabbalah and Judaism, gold in Sikhism, and many of the colors of Christianity.
I am fortunate enough to have personal relationships with people of all these faiths.
I celebrate them all.
So, Shabbot Shalom; welcome sabbath.
What rituals does your family have to welcome the Sabbath?
Welcome to my world! My name is Melanie!
