Multi-disciplinary Artist – Sculptor, Designer, Illustrator
Graduate of Hamidrasha Leomanut – Faculty of the Arts,
Beit Berl College,
Israel Member of Israel Association of Illustrators
Avid collector of witches
I was born an artist (in any case, this is what my mom used to tell me).
Arts and crafts have always been my heart and soul, my whole world
and the essence of my life. The lion’s share of my work is sculpting,
illustration, and design.
Throughout the years, I have illustrated hundreds of books, some of
which are bestsellers which are on display in Israel Museum’s Illustration
Library in Jerusalem.
I design products for leading Israeli companies and participate in
numerous domestic and international tradeshows.
My artwork can be found in many households in Israel and my products
are successfully sold in Israel and worldwide.

My Creative Process & Inspiration
Labor of Love and Passion
Even as a child I had a strong desire to create and keen observation was and still is the basis of my creativity. I observe my environment and perceive details and objects unnoticed by others, merge these things and emerging concepts and create from it something completely new – my own original artwork.
My work reflects this ability of mine to bring together different languages, materials, and various techniques and to generate a new and personal language of my own.
The basis of my art is total creative freedom. This is my starting point… no boundaries, no limits, and no ”right” or ”wrong”. My work is completely intuitive
and authentically and genuinely reflects the artist and designer in me.
I do not restrict my art to one specific material, color, texture, or the way I fuse them together. My creative process is awakened by feelings and imagination that give birth and direct me to a concept, which in turn, drives the actual creative work. Every concept and storyline are translated into art and every interesting item becomes part of the artwork as a whole.
My Collection of Items is My Personal Story
The different materials and items in my artwork mount up to a rich collection that I have gathered, created and weaved throughout many years. Each item has been carefully reviewed and collected on my journeys to many interesting places around the world. Each item carries in it a unique personality and its own life story.
Together, this collection of items defines a single thing – myself and my story via matter, creativity and inspiration.
