“I’m looking at the subject of the painting while understanding the spots, light and shadows and tones. I’ve studied painting in various schools with the finest artists in Israel, including a master class at the Jerusalem studio school directed by Israel Hershberg, Hatachana directed by Aram Gershuni and David Nipo and with Elie Shamir at Kfar Yehoshua.

In the recent years I have been painting the country’s landscapes in all directions.
I specialize mainly in painting outdoor by observation in nature (Plein Air Painting).
My source of inspiration comes from the old master painters – artists like Jean Baptiste Camille Coro, Isaac Levitan and many others.
I promote and lead the outdoor painting through observation of the landscape via a Facebook group named Plein Air Painting – Paint in Nature – En Plein Air. I exhibit in many group exhibitions and in three solo exhibitions.”
