Jacqueline Nicholls Illustrates the Talmud, Daily for Draw Yomi
JEWNIVERSE
By Matthue Roth
UNITED KINGDOM---An artist and an observant Jew, Jacqueline Nicholls truly fulfills the biblical commandment to write your own Torah. She’s an avid student of Judaism, and her reactions frequently take the form of art projects. Each day for the next 7 years, Nicholls, along with tens of thousands of others, is studying the entire 2,700-plus-page Talmud at the relatively brisk rate of one page a day, an undertaking called Daf Yomi. And every day, she draws a representation of one teaching: Draw Yomi. Why just read the Talmud, when you can gaze at it? [link]
