Yom asal, yom basal (one day honey, one day onion!)

Yom asal, yom basal   يوم عسل، يوم  بصل

This was probably the first kufi art I tried out on canvas. The idea was inspired by a colleague I had worked with, and she spoke fluent Arabic. From what she had taught me, I understand that the Arabs have a saying equivalent to the English "You win some, you lose some." Loosely translated, "Yom asal, yom basal" means honey days, onion days. Or, one day honey, one day onion! I think it's cute!
