Art for Life's Sake: Arafat Remebrance Ceremony

http://art-for-lifes-sake.blogspot.com/2007/11/arafat-remebrance-ceremony.html

Art for Life's Sake. Monday, November 12, 2007. Yassir Arafat died today, three years ago. There has been music and celebrations everywhere in the Palestinean Territories. It hasn't been a quiet day, the music is so loud and invasive that it was difficult for me to even have an afternoon nap at home! Hamas kills six at Arafat rally in Gaza". By Sakher Abu El Oun, 1 hour ago. There will be no dialogue and no discussions with the killers and coup-makers of Hamas, no dialogue with those who do not believe i...

Art for Life's Sake: November 2007

http://art-for-lifes-sake.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

Art for Life's Sake. Sunday, November 25, 2007. After 6 weeks of classes, seeing each group twice a week for 2 hours, a lot of progress has been made. I dedicated the rest of the term for painting with colours. First i taught them how to mix colours. They were dazzled when they found out that blue yellow = green, and that yellow red = orange! I explained the concept to them. I told them that these exercises are not pointless. Once they understand how colours are made, they will be unstoppable! Unfortunat...

Art for Life's Sake: Jerusalem

http://art-for-lifes-sake.blogspot.com/2007/11/jerusalem.html

Art for Life's Sake. Sunday, November 25, 2007. Wednesday November 7th – Jerusalem. Gilbert and I decided to go to Jerusalem for the weekend. Fortunately for the good ties between Project Hope and CCF, we were able to get free housing for two nights at a CCF host. We decided to spend no more than 200 Shekels ($50 US) on the whole weekend which I thought was impossible. We started off walking down to the city center where there are service buses that go to. We walked slowly, behind the man, holding our pa...

Art for Life's Sake: October 2007

http://art-for-lifes-sake.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html

Art for Life's Sake. Saturday, October 27, 2007. I have three groups of students: One group from Old Askar Camp, the second is from New Askar Camp, and the third is from Nablus City itself. For their first class I asked them to draw whatever they feel like. I wanted to see what themes they would come up on their own, how they drew, and the techniques and colours they used. The only answer I got was, ".maybe because he only had dead flowers to paint! Sunday, October 21, 2007. Coincidentally, that night, t...

Art for Life's Sake: 2am explosions

http://art-for-lifes-sake.blogspot.com/2007/10/2am-explosions.html

Art for Life's Sake. Sunday, October 21, 2007. Coincidentally, that night, the dogs did all start barking non-stop since 12am. I didn't think much of it at first but they did not stop for two straight hours. I thought of what my housemate said. 1.50am was the first sound of a bomb which shook me to the bone! I was falling asleep in my bed, and that sound woke me up wide awake! After the last, 26th bomb, all went silent. The dogs stopped barking, and the city was nice and calm again.

Art for Life's Sake: Weekend in Yanoon

http://art-for-lifes-sake.blogspot.com/2007/11/weekend-in-yanoon.html

Art for Life's Sake. Saturday, November 10, 2007. One of the major obstacles on the road to peace and justice in this region is the settler problem. The settler problem is quite obvious in Hebron where they have taken over large parts of the old city and frequently attack the Palestinians but it is present all over the west bank, even in the quietest and most remote areas. We arrived to the Interntionals’ house. As expected, there was absolutely no form of entertainment available! After mingling with som...
