My Story

I was born in Israel. My father was born in Belgium and my mother in Denmark. I went to the Artists House during my childhood. I am married and a mother of three. All These years we have been living in a small village in the north of Israel.
Most of my landscape paintings are from my Residential area and from north Italy. I use various techniques but mostly oil on canvas, sometimes the place is the same spot, but the art works are so different. The landscape I observe changes I keep in my memory and spell it out like an archive story. It is like a magnet that keeps me on this endless trail.
My art courses were in Civita Castellana, the Hirschberg JSS Art School in Italy with Sigal Tsabari and have been attending Aram Gershoni’s master class in Tel Aviv for 2 years. My web site can show that it is indeed an ongoing process.
I am a member of the Circle foundation of the Arts. list of publications can be found in my website as well as list of exhibitions I have participated in USA. Italy and here in Israel.
During the last 3 years I have participated in a Gilda course that evolved to a very important exhibition called "pause" included artworks of all artists in this group with curators that coached us during this period.
Artistic Statement:
Paints landscapes. You could say I paint one landscape, starting from observation even though the landscape has been familiar to me for almost four decades.
This repeated investigation, an act of meditation, instills in me peace with hope, I never feel tiered with the landscape around me.
This process has changed over the years, today I do not seek descriptive accuracy, but rather openness to the sensory level. My works take place within a figurative space, each work is born from its predecessor, like a continuous internal conversation, in which time accumulates, changes, and reorganizes.
My preoccupation with color itself even when it seems absent – fascinates me: It is what keeps me on the long and continuous pictorial journey, in which every movement carries within the traces of the moment and the depths of time.
I draw inspiration from Israeli artists such as Uri Reisman, in whose precise color I found a close language, and Anna Ticho, whose drawings opened a gateway for me to a patient and profound observation of the landscape. My painting is based on accumulated experience, not carried by the tide of changing trends, but remains faithful to an inner world and a personal language that has been woven and built over the years.
