Welcome to Joy of Silk Hand-painted Silk Judaica !
Silk-painting is the ideal medium that combines my love of art, teaching and Judaism. On this site you will view my custom work at synagogues and galleries in Boston, New York, and other areas.
My silk art includes Torah covers, wall hangings, parochet (the curtain before the ark), wedding canopies (chuppot), and of course, talitot.
I am delighted to work with you to design exactly the right custom piece of art specifically for your place of worship, your home, or for a special event.
Click "Talit Workshops" and view what it is like to join me in a talit-making class. You will be amazed at how simple it is to make your own hand-painted silk talit with just some gentle teaching and guidance from me. You don't need any drawing or painting experience to make something truly beautiful. Anyone can do it, and they do!
Families continue to tell me that making a talit together was one of the great highlights of their b'nai mitzvot in addition to being a fun and creative experience to share. The workshops are for adults and young people alike.
I offer private workshops for individuals or groups. Give me a call and we can arrange a time for you.
B'shalom,
Joy
