Two silhouettes of people dancing (ballet) in the billowing smoke above a volcano. In this piece i wanted to explore the idea of: having someone to share a tough or harrowing experience with makes it easier to get through it and keep your spirits higher than through it alone. This is a small throw...

"My art explores everything that is beautiful in this world...People, places, emotions, experiences, and opportunities." - Yeshaya Dank. I want beauty to be accessible to everyone, and for there to be the understanding that beauty exists everywhere, all the time, you just need to search for it and you will be dearly rewarded! I paint the uncharted territory, the places and things that I've never seen painted like this before or from this angle. I try to put many hidden gems into one painting, just waiting for you to discover. Showing how everything has beauty, it's just waiting to be discovered. Same with my artworks; with time you will discover new and beautiful details on each painting, which were previously hidden in plain sight! The artists who inspire my work include: Edvard Munch, Vincent Van Gogh, and JR. What is my creation process? I start by cutting stencils, to ensure that the base shapes and textures are perfect. I then paint using watercolour; up to 50 layers of different colours, in different areas. Allowing some areas to dry fast and some to try slower, creating different textures and shades of colour. I use thin canvasses intentionally, as i am trying to create beautiful getaways that when not being used, can just blend back into the background again. They don't stick out at you, yet they are still easily accessed at a moments notice, exactly when you need them. My total creation time, can be up to 3 months per painting. I grew up in Sydney, Australia. I'm currently based Globally. I move across the world. Thank you all so much for your ongoing support and I look forward to meeting all of you at some point in the near future! :) About my background and how i became a professional artist: I grew up orthodox jewish, and in the closet as a gay man, because being gay was treated like addiction in the orthodox jewish community. Art was my escape. I did 3D computer graphic art, paper mache, pottery, painting, drawing, and conceptual art. I then went on to study to become a rabbi. Got kicked out of rabbinical college with my bachelors degree but without rabbinical ordination cause i asked: "why does it say love thy fellow as thyself; if your against gay love?" Then went on to become an Entreprenuer. Eventually i found my way back to art.
