A dancer

Yesterday I worked on a new big painting of the dancer. It is 70 x 100 cm big. Oil on canvas. This is just the beginning


Ettie

My friend Ettie celebrated her birthday on Sunday November 15th. We had a small party at a friend's house in Mevaseret on Friday 11/13/15.
I've decided to make two paintings for her, one is her portrait the way she looks today, done in watercolor. The other one is a drawing. In the charcoal drawing I was trying to bring her back to her 20's, using my imagination, I think I didn't succeed in creating likeness from the past.

A month ago painting a head statue

While I was staying in my brother's apt in Yaffo, I decided to paint the head statue he purchased a while ago. The head was done by the artist sculpter Abraham Melnikov the one who did The famous Roaring Lion standing in Tel Hai memorial in Upper Galilee Israel.
I fiinished working on it in my studio.

Succot Morning at the Baptists Village Park

In the last 3 weeks I didn't paint much, I was busy with my vacation to Cinqua terre and Florence Italy, and later with holiday dinners, family gathering and more...

Yesterday I felt that I can't wait any more. I drove to the nearest national park with my box of watercolors and that's what came out
