cremainsWithout a yeshivah to be in, people to stand for and open doors for and people I can comfortably interrupt, defined arenas of argument and the negotiation of reality, I find myself at a loss. There is not much to do about it except learn alone and try to concentrate.
I have time for drawing as well, for the moment. This picture was made with a pleasing array of blacks: lamp black, ivory black, mars black. Unfortunately, I don't have access to a scanner, and took a photo of it. You can see that the lighting of the actual room worked all too well with the lighting of the painted room. It's for the sixth pereq of Daniel, when he is a little older is once more temporarily ascendant in the king's court, and just about to fall again, and hard, into harm's way. There's nothing very gory or upsetting in this picture; although I wanted to suggest a parallel between prayer and vomiting it just didn't end up coming through. So instead there are some nice fabric patterns.
Incidentally, it's from the sixth pereq that it's learnt that it is forbidden to pray in a room without windows, since Daniel waits until they are installed or opened to use the attic for prayer. It mentions that he faces out a window towards Jerusalem, but the way I drew it we don't see those and do see one behind him, in order to give a sense of a push forwards.
