Artist's Statement
I am a self-taught artist who was born and have lived most of my life in Israel
My inspiration for my paintings comes from my feelings and emotions. I am in love with color, and am experimenting with colors to find my own technique and methods.
The themes are in me, however, the interpretations are frequently different from the pictures I imagine.
In my art I paint how I see the universe: creatures, humans, animals, and themes from nature and my experiences.
