About The Artwork
I was inspired by the stories of my good old friend Mateo, who passed away a few years ago. He was the nicest ‘campesino’ I’ve ever met, the Grandfather and Godfather of the village of Agua-Sabrosa (Samana Peninsula, Dominican Republic). A farmer, a fisherman, and a brilliant story teller. ‘Mateo Redman Jackson’ was one of the ‘Samana Americans’ (Los Americanos de Samana), a cultural enclave, the descendants of the African Americans, who immigrated to the Samana area in the 19th century and the only people in that area that spoke some English. His ‘old times’ stories enriched my imagination and I enjoyed very much our special friendship. May his soul rest in peace.

Israel
I'm a self-taught Israeli artist. I’ve been painting intensively for 25 years, using colors like nobody else. I pursue an adventurous lifestyle as an ongoing inspiration. I never plan. When I’m in the zone, plugged into to my subconscious, I just follow the lines and colors I see. That's my simple secret to unlimited originality. I began painting in 1995, co-founded the Almogan Art Gallery in 1997. Between 2002-2012 I lived in Las-Terrenas, Dominican Republic, and co-founded “Fundacion Marlee-Jo”, a non-profit for local children. I have created art under 40 different artistic identities.
