"SHADES OF LOVE" Painting

I belong to the sort of people who where born with the unique skill of being unable to ignore, its impossible for me not to see the shadow falling under an eye lash, I can't evade the view of my own shadow lying on the 'grunge'-like wall of my studio, could never escape my 7 year old bicycle logo with the thin lined scratch decorating it, the scratch that tells a story.

I drew and painted constantly and have been doing so since the day my father gave me his Architect's pencil. I capture the Stories, the movement and the motion that constantly thrills me. can't help it.

Studied art at high school and hated it so I decided to drop out and become a romantic artist, on my way I studied film and television at the Sam Spiegel film and television school in Jerusalem, worked as an art director an constructor until 1995 where I "shed" of all of my desires and became an orthodox 'monk' in Mea Shearim Jerusalem, I studied Tora and Talmud for 15 whole years, got married and had seven children.

After that period of time I woke up and began emerging from my cocoon got back to drawing, back to painting, rented an art studio and been working ever since.
