Village Street Café
Pastel on velvet paper A narrow village street opens between sunlit houses, trees, and a small café table gathered beneath pale umbrellas. Soft pastel layers blur edges and blend warm ochres, terracotta reds, greens, and cool sky tones into an atmospheric surface. The result feels intimate and quietly lively, with a sense of late-day light moving through the scene.

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.
