Velikansky Larisa

I’m a mother of three children and a grandmother to three grandsons. I immigrated to Israel from Russia 25 years ago. I’ve always had a passion for working with my hands—sewing and creating things with different tools and materials. Ten years ago, I started working on renovations and discovered the charm of wall putty. I realized the potential of this material and began creating art with it on the walls of my own home and in other places. I take inspiration from real images I see online or in everyday life. The ones I truly like, I use as a vision to create my art. I work with wall putty, plaster, epoxy, and various colors
