I wish could figure out how to send you a note, but alas, I am deviantart challenged. I was wondering, did you design that hebrew "I Am" tattoo? If so, I guess I have a favor to ask of you.

I really would like a tattoo in hebrew, yours was particularly beautiful. I am still not sure what I would want it to say, but do you think it possible if when I decide, for you to maybe write it out for me?

לא פוחד is Hebrew for fearless i.e. to not be afraid

do not fear or fear not is a bit more difficult and I wouldn't know how to translate that exactly, but if you find it out let me know and I'll gladly draw it out for you

and-a-bag-of-chips In reply to yaakovforstovski [2009-11-21 01:03:10 +0000 UTC]

After some research I couldnt find the translation, but it generally came up as "Al Tirah" or "Be not afraid"
I asked to local Rabbi to translate it for me. But he refused because tattoos are prohibited. I didnt feel like arguing with a rabbi about the conditions of Leviticus. So I smiled and nodded. haha. But perhaps this will help some?

Yeah I'm good thanks.Just wish there was a little more day light in my studio. Sadly, it's the time of year cosy but dull.

yaakovforstovski In reply to arisingmoon [2008-11-05 13:46:16 +0000 UTC]

Thats true, I try not to paint in winter really, although you'll sometimes get a beautiful harsh light if there's no cloud cover (which is rare)

arisingmoon In reply to yaakovforstovski [2008-11-05 15:23:27 +0000 UTC]

I need to be busy painting through the winter as I want to do the Open Studios event next May. I've never done it before but it means I need to be more productive than I have been this last year so I've got enough work to make it pay. Btw I saw Jimi Hendrix play live when Purple Haze hit the charts
