You might be today year’s old when you learn tha You might be today year’s old when you learn that pomegranates are a ripe and plentiful symbol in the Jewish religion, especially around the holiday of Rosh Hashanah. Among many reasons, it’s been said that pomegranates have 613 seeds, one for every mitzvah. (Mitzvah actually means commandment, but is often thought of as a good deed). Many Jewish families (especially the Sephardim, Jews descended from Spain and Portugal) serve the fruit on Rosh Hashanah in the hope that the coming year will bring many blessings, prosperity, and the opportunity to do good. Today is the first day of Rosh Hashanah and Jews around the world are celebrating under a shadow of sadness—for the state of Israel, the remaining hostages, the ongoing death toll of the war, and the rampant antisemitism spreading worldwide. It’s hard to find sweetness in such bitter times, but community and togetherness are the first step to healing. On Rosh Hashanah we say L’shana Tova U’metuka, which offers a wish of a good and sweet year. ❤️🍎🌍 (Please leave space for sweet wishes here; this post was not intended to inflame any political opinions. L’shana Tova!) #roshhashanah #lshanatova #jewishjoy

I always tend to write “sending hugs” at the I always tend to write “sending hugs” at the bottom of my letters to Sommer at camp. So I decided to send her the closest thing to an actual hug as I could. I traced my hands on cardstock, cut them out, then glued a ribbon that measured from wrist to wrist at the bottom edge of each hand. I wrote her a note on the palms, and then gave myself a nice manicure and bling with gemstones! Such a fun thing for a kid to open when they are away from home! #campmail #mailart #snailmail #sleepawaycamp #summercamp #craftymail
Michael the Father of My Children (that’s how he Michael the Father of My Children (that’s how he appears in my phone contacts) loves to fish, enjoys golf and tennis, occasionally wears a tie (and looks adorable), but I will never understand why #fathersdaygifts are so heavily weighted in these themes. He also loves candy🍬 ! And painting 🎨! And collecting records 🎧! And animals of all kinds🐶🦊🐧! And our new vegetable garden 🪴! Show me those cards, Hallmark! One year, we chose three things that he loves and Oliver, Sommer and I made little paintings for him. I think to this day it’s his favorite gift from us of all time. It costs next to nothing and truly comes from the heart.  And guess where this treasured piece of art hangs in our new home? Yes, the bathroom, where he can see it for hours on end. (Sorry to end with a bathroom joke, babe!) 🧻 #fathersdaygifts #fathersdaygift #homemadefathersdaygift #diyfathersdaygift #fathersdaycard #watercolorpainting

But let’s be real...95% of my audience are THE MOTHERS, so these posts only land on wishful eyes. 👀 Sigh. So this Mother’s Day, let’s just celebrate each other because honestly, it takes one to know one. 👯‍♀️ Comment MAMA on this post and I’ll DM you the link to print this editable illustration to make up a mom’s mind! There’s a version where you can type your answers in, save the image, and text or email to a friend or a mom figure in your life! Happy Mother’s Day (to those who celebrate!)!

If you’re celebrating Easter this weekend, you’re probably in a gift-wrapping, decorating, or crafting frenzy (maybe all of the above!).

I’m not really big on zodiac signs, but I happen I’m not really big on zodiac signs, but I happen to have a lot of friends that are my astrological Aquarian sisters. To celebrate our birthdays, we assembled a stellar group of women (with a few Aquarius-adjacent friends in tow), and as an experiment of sorts (and very much inspired by my #PKdailymade art practice), I brought along a little restaurant-friendly, art-making activity. Everyone got a clipboard with a blank piece of paper, with a number in the corner—one through nine. I brought nine colored pencils (that corresponded to the color palette of one of my favorite paintings), and each person selected a color. My instruction was to quickly make a mark on the paper without too much thought. Then, pass the clipboards to the right, to respond in pencil to the mark(s) made before ours. And we kept passing the clipboards around until everyone at the table had added their gesture to each piece of paper. We all took our clipboards home and it was my hope that it would live as a pARTy favor (see what I did there?) that represented that moment with those women on that winter night in NYC. The activity took all of 3 minutes but it left everyone with not just a momento, but a feeling of creating something together…sans judgement.
DAILY MADE #30 OBJECTIVE As the last post of my f DAILY MADE #30 OBJECTIVE As the last post of my first month of daily making (posted late due to last week’s birthday celebrations!), I think this one is so fitting. What’s the OBJECTIVE here? What’s the point/purpose/goal? In the short-term, these were just meant to be like stretches before a workout…something to limber me up to work on the bigger stuff. And while they did that, they also gave me a cadence to my day. On days when I was feeling like the silver ball in a pinball machine, this assignment gave me a very concrete touchstone to hitch my wagon to. And ideas came, which have bred more ideas and I have been delighted and surprised with some connections I’ve made. I’ve loved having conversations with people online and in person about the project, and I hope it might inspire others to jumpstart a daily practice. Moving forward, I’ll be sharing these on my stories (and occasionally on the feed if they are worthy). I’ll create a highlight reel so if you ever feel like catching up, they’ll be there for you!
DAILY MADE #29 DISH I was going to start with a b DAILY MADE #29 DISH I was going to start with a blanket statement that everyone remembers their childhood dish ware, but then it occurred to me how absurd, and possibly triggering, that statement is. People move around without valuables, some eat on fast food wrappers, while others are lucky to eat. Period. I think it’s more accurate to say that there are textures, patterns, colors from our childhood that are engraved in our minds eye. And for me, one is this flower pattern from our plates and bowls. Florals weren’t particularly my mother’s taste, and this one had such a youthful vibe that I adored. (I used to struggle to find the repeat and was always annoyed that two adjacent flowers had green leaves.) My parents bought this set on their honeymoon in St. Thomas, and my mom said they fell in love with it because it was a modern take on floral. Sadly they sold it many years ago, but I’ve come to learn that my husband’s grandmother had the coffee cups and pitcher; we are now the rightful owners of those pieces. I love the idea of plucking a pattern from our mind’s eye and repurposing it as something else in our homes. Not to sell or knock-off, but just to enjoy as a connection to the past. (Upon additional research I learned that this pattern was designed by @EmilioPucci for @rosenthal_porcelain, famous for his vibrant patterns and the invention of the one-piece ski suit.

DAILY MADE #28 DISTANCE Perhaps a little expected DAILY MADE #28 DISTANCE Perhaps a little expected to illustrate with maps, but it’s always a good reminder to use a mix of materials in collages. I did “symbolically” choose my city of origin (the Metro Atlanta area) as the ground (and haphazardly the ocean at Martha’s Vineyard for the horizon)! #artchallenge #artprompt #drawingprompts #artpromptlist #makesomethingeveryday #artchallenges #dailypractice #makermaking #PKwordofday #PKDailyMade
DAILY MADE #27 DEFECTIVE I stewed over this one a DAILY MADE #27 DEFECTIVE I stewed over this one a bit because of my eternal struggle with perfectionism. Viewing flaws as just another way to say something is unique can be hard for many. I was trying to think of a defect that rendered an object totally unusable. This was a moment of gratitude for my crowded craft table because there was a balloon from another project sitting right there. Can you mend a broken balloon? 🎈 #artchallenge #artprompt #drawingprompts #artpromptlist #makesomethingeveryday #artchallenges #dailypractice #makermaking #PKwordofday #PKDailyMade

DAILY MADE #25 REFUSE The first word on my brains DAILY MADE #25 REFUSE The first word on my brainstorm list was “resist” and I pretty much knew where I was going from there. If you’ve never done resist painting with your littles, you’re missing out on some pretty awesome art-making magic! I used an oil pastel but you can use a white crayon or even the end of a candle! Watercolor paint just wicks away when you slide the brush over the wax markings. I almost made a little protest sign to further the whole resistance idea, but instead a pot of 🌺 🌸 🌺! 🤷🏻‍♀️ #artchallenge #artprompt #drawingprompts #artpromptlist #makesomethingeveryday #artchallenges #dailypractice #makermaking #PKwordofday #PKDailyMade #resist #resistpainting #waxresist #processart
