Zentangling a Chamsa
Yesterday was the annual Yom Limmud in Houston. One of my favorite sessions was an art class on how to zentangle a chamsa. After a brief warm up using a pencil, most of us switched to the permanent Sharpies and went to task. Here is my finished chamsa that I zentangled.
I had a grand time learning how to zentangle and look forward to doing another one soon!
Here is Darren's finished piece.
He used watercolor to brighten his lovely design. I love it!
Isn't the intricate detail in this one delightful?

Video art installation on San Fernando Cathedral
The next time you are in San Antonio, Texas, be sure to make time to see this amazing video art installation "San Antonio: the Saga" currently being shown on the magnificent façade of San Fernando Cathedral, in downtown San Antonio. It is captivating, delightful, and best of all FREE!
The show, which debuted on June 13, 2014, takes place at night, when the sun has set. You may wish to bring your own chair or cushion to sit on -- or stand as it is only 24 minutes long. This photo is taken from one of the few seats available... I quickly moved to a more center front spot for the remainder of the show.
French artist, Xavier de
Richemont created this spectacular art projection. It is his first installation in the United States. Other countries that have also displayed his public art installations include France, Germany, Spain, Morocco, Mexico and Canada. Look for Xavier de Richemont on FaceBook to see more images of this show.
Vivid entrancing and constantly changing lights move across the cathedral while accompanied with custom-choreographed music featuring many melodies that you will recognize, in surround sound too. This artistic performance tells the historical story of discovery, settlement and development of the city San Antonio. The amazing images (both specific and abstract) literally dance across the facade of San Fernando cathedral.
Originally built between 1738 and 1755, San Fernando
Cathedral is the oldest operating sanctuary in North America. It sits in
Main Plaza, the heart of San Antonio. Main Plaza is the ideal location
for this story to be told as it is one of only four colonial plazas left
in the United States, and the only one with a cathedral.
The video art show is schedule to run for the next 10 years, weather permitting:
- Tuesday (free downtown parking) — 9 p.m., 9:30 p.m., 10 p.m.;
- Friday — 9 p.m., 9:30 p.m., 10 p.m.;
- Saturday — 9 p.m., 9:30 p.m., 10 p.m.;
- Sunday — 9 p.m., 9:30 p.m., 10 p.m.
