Arty Stuff

Eden has been receiving birthday cards made by me ever since she was a young girl. Last year I made a card showing her working as a flight attendant for El Al, Israel's national airline, but this year she has changed direction somewhat and is now an art student at the Holon Institute of Technology.

Mum asked me to show Eden doing arty things on her card. She has been painting, creating collage, making Hebrew letters, and designing stuff on her MacBook, mum said. She also suggested that I include Eden's old white Toyota Corolla on the card.

I showed Eden with an artist's palette in one hand and a paintbrush in the other. She is surrounded by paints and pencils, and some scissors to represent the collage work she has been doing. Next to her is her laptop computer with the Hebrew letters Ayin (pronounced "ah-yeen") and Mem on the screen. They are the initials of her name. I added her car too. Finally, a big red number 25 marks her age.
Eden messaged me to say that she loved the card!
