The challenge at sugarfrostedgoodness.com this week is "signs".
I was looking for a story to illustrate "a sign from God".
The story of Miriam was told to me by this guy, and it goes like this...
Miriam was the sister of Moses and Aaron. Her name means either "wished for child", "bitter" or "rebellious", but it might be derived originally from an Egyptian name, myr "beloved" or mr "love" or even Meryamun "beloved of Amun".
Miriam was essentially the first racist. Moses' wife, Tzipora, was a Cushite. In the Bible, a large region covering northern Sudan, southern Egypt, and parts of Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Somalia were known as Cush. It is possible (and probable) that people from this region had a darker skin color than the Israelites. She was also a Midianite. In the Bible, the Midianites are described as worshipping a multitude of gods, and therefore, not Jewish. Although no bad feelings or ill will was ever expressed previously towards the Cushites and Midianites, Miriam disapproved of Moses' marriage and she didn't make a secret of how she felt. God was angered by Miriam speaking Lashon hara (gossiping, or speaking negatively about someone), and she was struck with tzaraat, often mistranslated as leprosy, but manifesting as a whitening of the skin over the whole body with sores. After Aaron asked Moses to intercede for her, Moses uttered a five-word prayer: El nah refa nah-la — "O Lord, make her well," and she recovered within seven days.
The moral of this story is (and I quote Captain Wow): "Don't be talking smack about God's friends."
(Just as a side note: Illustration Friday posed the word "signs" as a challenge in May 2007. Here is the illustration I did then. When I did the drawing above, I did not remember doing one for the word "signs" before. I think it's funny that I went in a totally different direction with this one.)

This week's theme: Signs
This is another of those that leaves a lot to interpretation, so it will be fun to see what everyone comes up with. I'm looking forward to it. We had great participation on that last challenge, Black and White...thank you SFG'ers!
The SFG Challenge runs Thursday to Thursday, and was created to offer every member an opportunity to stretch their creative muscles, venture outside of their artistic boundaries and post their interpretations each week on a specific theme. This is a completely voluntary challenge!
Be sure to label your illustrations with the appropriate labels as well. Label your entries with your name and the challenge label, in this case SFG: Signs.
By the way SFG'ers, we've had a number of new members join recently, with quite a few more on their way in. Please make them feel welcome!
The next challenge begins Thursday, November 15th, 2007.
Have a great week SFG'ers!
-Jeff
Nice work Roberta!
Great Spider. Nice skull and crossbones detail on cup.
Poor fly didn't see it coming.
Tea for two... soon to be tea for one. One of my faves from your blog!
I don't know which I dislike worst flies or spiders, great illo.
I love the expression on the fly's face. He doesn't look very comfortable, even though the spider looks so nice and friendly :)
This drawing is excellent, Roberta!
