Artist Statement:
As an artist I'm trying to recapture the essence of the simple life of bygone times in Israel's Galilee region. The Olive tree is a dominant theme in my work, it symbolize the good connection between nature and the human being.
There are other works that I'm trying to expose the spiritual lineament from the Judaism tradition that hides inside the landscapes view of Israel.
