The Sisterhood Pushke Pottery Painting Party

A few things to keep in mind:

First, join us Wednesday, May 18 (with Chai tea) for our annual Pushke party. This year we will meet at Ceramic Cafe on Mission near 95th from 6-9:00 pm. 

Second, remember this is not meant to be drudgery, but to be fun! Bring food to pass; join friends to share your creative talents, your spirit and your determination with; and come with an open mind.

A pushke to aspire to; although, you may not want to try this as you pottery project!

Third, we’re bringing our donations for a good cause… the Torah Fund Campaign of Women’s League in support of The Jewish Theological Seminary (New York, NY), Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies (Los Angeles, CA) and the Schechter Institute of Jewish Studies (Jerusalem). Civia will share a few thoughts about this with us.

Plan out something meaningful to write.

Fourth, remember that a little planning will help you create and take away most of the worry. I like to look for ideas before I go to paint. Hopefully some of these ideas will inspire you.

Find a cute picture to copy onto a mug.

A simple, practical idea. What kind of bowl do you need?

Metallic Sharpie's... another easy that idea!

I've not seen so much line work done before.
I'm not sure what tool they drew with; but, researching new ideas is always fun.

I believe these painted dots are added using the back side of the brush.

More fun with dots, lines and circles. Remember, straight lines are the hardest things to draw.

Something a bit more difficult, but lovely.
Maybe you have a fabric you like at home and want to copy?

We will also go over Sisterhood nominations and take ideas for next year's programming. Please RSVP and let me know what you plan to bring. Email me at tovah.intent@gmail.com. See you there!
