I know my posts have been chronologically topsy turvy, but I don’t think it really matters in the grander scheme of things.
Letter to a Teacher
Posted on June 20, 2012 5 Comments
I’ve always expressed my appreciation for the teaching profession. Educators have a great responsibility for the creation of well-rounded, literate individuals. Many of my friends are teachers (in the literal sense; I’m leaving out parents here), and every single one of them instructs with a passion not just to teach but to learn from […]
Upcoming Exhibition}PrettyGreenBullet|The Second Exhibition
Posted on September 24, 2011 4 Comments
I have finally secured a venue and set a date (well, two tentatively, a week apart) for my upcoming PrettyGreenBullet exhibition. I have decided to have a one-night PGB exhibition at the Dar Al-Funoon gallery on either December 5 or December 12. It’s a bigger and more fulfilling sensation than I thought now that I […]

My son is teaching me how to use Flash. It bothered him slightly that I was doodling, but he does the same at school. I’m very excited about my lessons.

Posted on May 23, 2011 5 Comments
Whenever I’m waiting, and that happens a lot, I usually read. If I don’t have a book, I doodle in one of my many ‘handbag’ notebooks. And if, for some reason, I don’t have one of those, I find any piece of paper in my purse and busy myself away.

I think she’s finished. I put a note in her hand because her expression and intent gaze reminded me of how as children, in class, we would focus on the teacher’s face while subtly flicking the note to its intended recipient.

I spend so much of my time waiting: at traffic lights, clinic waiting rooms, for my children after school, at my parents’ as the children suffer with the tutor. Usually I have a notebook or sketchbook in my bag somewhere, or a book to read, so I’m always taken care of. I got to Mogahwi […]

These are the final notes for the upcoming Palestinian Culture Center exhibition opening on November 29th at Bait Lothan. I’ve been volunteering at the center for over fifteen years and it becomes a big part of my life twice a year. I’m going to include the invitation in this post for those of you […]
Notes & Doodles|Green Caravan Film Festival 2010
Posted on October 30, 2010 1 Comment
I’m patting myself on the back for volunteering to do some booth work at the Green Caravan Film Festival starting tomorrow. Of course what I will be doing there is nothing compared to the organizational efforts put forth by the festival’s founders Sandra Al-Saleh and Reham Al-Samerai. The event is free of charge. And of course […]
