This is an acrylic painting, 60/60 cm. Painted with a little help from my 3 year old daughter. Being a parent and a painter, for me, is 100% creativity at all times. Sometimes when it doesn’t work, and, for example, when I plan on napping and instead I get jumping on the bed (or head), I go to my magical place. Painting. So, this painting is thanks to all things in life that help me in being a better mother: plans, children, change and flexibility. Oh Magic Deer, be my guide to all the craziness that happens sometimes.If you want to buy this painting, click here.

I find my self painting all the time. These days starting to work on a new exhibition that will take place at the “Container” –  From May 1st to 21st. Join me on Facebook to stay updated.
These magical large women combined with trees and whimsical landscapes, started to appear in my paintings after my baby girl was born, they have big colorful dresses, they may look pregnant, and there is something magical going on in their big bellies… I’m sure motherhood took over my creative mind, and I enjoy it so much! New images come to my mind the moment I close my eyes, I am very grateful for that. My red tree painting is also part of this big thing, the canvas prints reproduced from it seem to be a bestseller…

This wedding portrait was painted as a gift to a friend and his bride, acrylic on canvas, 30/30 cm. For custom orders in same method, for a wedding invitation for example, go to my ETSY shop: http://www.etsy.com/listing/59371844/custom-illustration-jpegpng-for-a I enjoyed the work of “copying” from a big master of art, as this is a tribute to the famous wedding portrait: The Arnolfini Portrait, by Jan van Eyck  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnolfini_Portrait). The fun part was of course combining the original with the portrait of the couple, and the adding of the Ukrainian pattern around (I like patterns and ornament, and I hope to use it more and more in my work).

Oil on canvas – Sunset rose

Oil on canvas, 50/70 cm (I think…) This work was made few years ago and sold to a nice woman. I like working with oil paint, it’s a very smooth and flowing medium. There is also something nice in painting flowers. Maybe it is not such a surprising image, but it is pleasant to the eye. The combination between the two, oil on canvas, and flowers (especially a rose), makes the painting work pure pleasure. I miss working with oil paint, so I guess I’ll come back to it after I finish my final project.

Oil on canvas 20/30 cm. From a quick study in Jerusalem, when color, light and composition are the topic. This time it was outside, in nature, but I also like studio painting.  In this kind of art I find myself very comfortable and at home. I don’t even call it art. It is just something I do. I like to learn new things in this field of art,  and practice what I already know. There is always something new to discover.
