While in Yaffo we stopped by two really amazing art studios.
The first-- AdinaPlastelina. The owners/artists Sami Leder and Adi Prahia use a technique called "millefiori" (it means "a thousand flowers" in Italian) on polymer clay to create really amazing jewels. It's like phemo beads, but much much much cooler and prettier.
The second--the drawing studio of Julien Roux. We bought 5 awesome postcards and will be going back for a larger piece of art before we leave Israel. We were giddy at the sight of his strange work. One of my favorites is a black ink drawing of a Rabbi on a skateboard that has this caption written on the bottom "Cool Rabbins Are Skateboarding"
We didn't take any photos in either studio for fear of annoying the proprietors, but here are are few more photos of our brief time in Yaffo.
A Russian Orthodox church inside the walls of ancient Yaffo (can't seem to locate the name).
Blurry and saintly.
Still inside ancient Yaffo.
This lucky house overlooks the sea, ancient Yaffo.
