About the Artist

I am an Israeli born artist living in Reisterstown, Maryland USA. I have studied Graphic Design and Art at the WIZO- Hadassah Neri Bloomfield School of Design in Haifa, Israel, in 1981-1985. After working as a graphic designer for several publishing houses in Israel for many years, I decided to work independently, and began to express myself through different media. My artwork consists of decorative painting, hand-painted furniture, mosaics, watercolor prints/collages, invitations, greeting cards and Ketubot. I like to use watercolor, acrylic and collage techniques to create bright and colorful works of art. My watercolor limited edition prints collection includes prints/collages embracing motifs, blessings, shapes, colors and symbols inspired by the Jewish tradition. More recently, I have expanded my art product line to include unique invitations and announcements, greeting cards, contribution cards and other gift items for organizations, charities and individuals celebrating special family events and holidays. Since customers have been asking me to create custom designed Ketubot, I have started to research and explore that area. I have discovered a whole new world of wonderful opportunities to create and design unique, customized and personalized Ketubot. By creating affordable paintings, prints, Ketubot, cards and invitations inspired by the rich Jewish heritage, I hope that anyone will be able to purchase, enjoy and appreciate the beauty of the Jewish tradition represented in my artwork.
