My hands have been holding the paintbrush for about four decades. At the age of 12, I was already drawn to the art of drawing and painting, feeling a deep connection to it. Even when I wasn’t physically holding the paintbrush, it was always present in my mind.
I began my journey with a course taught by the artist Chasi Lashinsky. Following that, as part of my studies, I continued learning drawing and illustration from Bracha Sorotzkin, later returning to Chasi to refine my work at a higher level. I also took lessons from the renowned artist SylviaBar-Am, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Jewish Quarter in old Jerusalem.
For hours, the painter Pnina Frank and I would sit in the Yemin Moshe neighborhood, surrounded by nature, capturing the magical view before us. Dina Rozenzweig introduced meto academic art, while I became acquainted with the unique methods of Binyamin Bastiker. I further specialized in art history and modern art under the guidance of Mrs. Sara Lipetz, a Russian artist.
Collaborating with well-known painters Brachi Horen and Menucha Yankelevitz allowed me to advance and develop my skills even further, thanks to their insightful feedback and extensive experience. Most of my paintings feature flowers and Judaica. As I watch my paintbrush danceacross the canvas, I'm thrilled to see how the knowledge I've acquired comes to life in new harmonies infused with my own personal touch.
