Omer Drawings

from the freedom festival of Pesach, for 7 weeks until the festival of Shavuot, the receiving of the Torah, there is a Jewish ritual to count each day. The mystics took this biblical barley offering and transformed this time period into one of transformation and self-reflection. Since 2011, I have counted these 49 days with drawing. Each year focusing on a different theme and intention.
