The seven-week journey from Pesach to Shavuot invites us into reflection, growth, and spiritual awakening. In this post, I’m sharing a new resource I created—Counting the Omer: A Spiritual Journey—a guided journal filled with weekly sefirot teachings, daily prompts, blessings, reflections, and artwork to deepen the Omer practice.
Creative Process
Striving for Equanimity
Parashat Ki Tisa reminds us that life is not a story of perfection but of breaking and repairing. When the Israelites shattered faith with the Golden Calf, God revealed the Thirteen Attributes of Compassion — teaching us that even in our most difficult moments, we are invited to return to our best selves. This week’s reflection explores compassion, resilience, TNBC awareness, and the sacred work of showing up with presence and love.
In the Beginning: A Journey of Creation and Illumination
As we begin the Torah anew with B’reishit, I’m reflecting on creation, creativity, and the practice of Visual Midrash—interpreting sacred text through art. Join me in exploring how color, prayer, and intention can illuminate the Divine spark within each of us.

Interwoven Harmonies
This blog post explores the spiritual themes of Parashat Va’etchanan, including the Shema, listening as a sacred act, and the power of poetry and prayer. It introduces the original prayer Interwoven Harmonies and reflects on Shabbat Nachamu and Tu B’Av. The post also invites readers to the launch of ZenScribe a platform for Jewish professionals to customize lifecycle certificates and other Jewish graphics.
From the Fire to Freedom:
Reflections on Parashat Tzav and the Journey of the Omer As we prepare for Passover and begin the sacred practice of Counting the Omer, Parashat Tzav reminds us of the enduring flame—“a perpetual fire shall be kept burning on the altar, it shall not go out” (Leviticus 6:6). This verse became the foundation for this week’s Torah illustration. […]
