Behind the Blue Wall
A child’s face appears from behind a blue wall, meeting the viewer with a direct, watchful gaze above a low brick edge. Thin acrylic layers and visible brushwork soften the pale background while building warmth and depth in the skin tones. The restrained palette and cropped composition create a quiet, introspective presence.

Anat Cohen (b. 1964) is an Israeli figurative artist based in Hod HaSharon, who acquired her formal art education at the Beit Berl Art College (HaMidrasha). Her body of work encompasses oil and acrylic paintings created on canvas alongside raw, live-edge natural wood slices. Her practice on wood centers on a continuous dialogue with the organic medium, seamlessly integrating natural fissures, rings, knots, and textures directly into the composition and narrative of each piece. Cohen’s realistic-figurative style explores the vitality of wildlife, universal symbolism, human nature, and feminine strength, fusing anatomical precision with organic abstraction to create immersive, soulful, and singular works of art.
