Artist: Orli Ziv, Jerusalem in Blue Painting

Shalom and Bonjour I am Orli Ziv and I am an Israeli French painter. 25 years ago I resided in Israel on the outskirts of the city of Jerusalem. Since then I paint my own personal experience of this magical ancient city that means so much to so many people all over the world. Over the years I developed an abstract style using a palette knife to record the traces of my lyrical gestures. I find abstract art very appealing because it imposes no limits. Painting to me is like Jazz improvisation and relates to my love of playing the saxophone that requires sensibility and personal interpretation. Each painting tells a story and touches people in a very personal way the same way a book or a song does. After several years of experimenting with mixing pigments and oil or acrylic binders I finally discovered my own special technique. Through my paintings I feel I was lucky to touch many souls through the deep vibrant colors ,depicting the silhouette of Jerusalem. One can envision them bringing viewers to that most special city infused with holiness and depth. Echoes of that energy resound in the pulsating colors and rhythms of my abstract work as well , providing the spiritual quality that pervades every painting.
