Afterglow Across the desert
A broad, cloud-filled sky opens above horizontal bands of water and a low, dark shoreline. Soft oil brushwork on canvas layers powder blue, blush pink, pale yellow, and crimson into atmospheric transitions, while broader strokes blur reflections across the foreground. The luminous palette and distant horizon create a serene, contemplative mood suited to a living room, bedroom, or quiet office.
Ester Agassi Cohen
My artistic approach is based on stain painting using a method of creative release, the technique through which I learned to paint and which I apply in my own art and with my students. I paint both from observation and imagination, with my main subjects being the landscapes of my childhood, moving between Kibbutz Magen in the western Negev and Jerusalem, where I was born. My work combines different media, mainly oil on canvas and linen, pastels, watercolor, and gouache. Each medium allows me room to search and wander creatively, giving me the freedom to express painterly stains, release, and vibrant color in its own distinct way.
