Garden Across the Water
A lush garden unfolds beyond a reflective pond, where dense foliage, flowering trees and small groups of figures gather along the distant bank. Layered acrylic brushwork softens the vegetation into shifting greens, while horizontal strokes and pale highlights animate the water’s mirrored surface. The airy palette and gentle movement create a restful, light-filled atmosphere suited to a living room, dining area or office.

Rutie Kohen
Rutie Kohen was born and raised in Netanya. After getting married, she moved to Petah Tikva, where she raised her three children.

Upon retiring, a new chapter began as she turned her attention to the world of art. Her artistic journey began with the study and exploration of various Folk Art styles. Over time, she gradually moved beyond structured forms and conventions, embracing a freer and more intuitive approach to painting. Through this process, she developed a personal artistic language that allows her the freedom to explore subjects, colors, and forms of expression in her own distinctive way.
