I want to look at my paintings and see my Self in the mirror

I have lived in three different countries whose cultures have had a strong and profound influence on my outlook on life. My work reflects the layering of these influences and the richness of their humanity and cultural diversity. I express these affects in my textured, much layered Mixed Media work as well as in the underlying complexity of my work in Oils. In a way, what I want to express with my need and fondness for textures and layers is that “there’s much more here than meets the eye”. I always aim for the simplicity of elegance but this simplicity is made up of putting on and taking off layers and layers of paint and materials, scraping, scumbling and manipulating the surface until it expresses a genuine experience. My art is a colorful interpretation of my history, experiences and memories.

About Me

I was born in Brazil, lived in Israel and am now a citizen of the U.S. Living in different countries and being exposed to different cultures has enriched both as a person and as an artist. These influences are reflected in my layered, textured work. Each layer creates a "history", a memory and builds on what came before it. As a person and as an artist I am able to absorb different points of view , perspectives and visions. It all melds into my work, the variety of shapes, the attention to color and values, as well as the importance attached to an interesting composition. I am happy with a painting when I feel it contains the rich layering of my life.

I was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, lived in Israel and now make my home in the United States. Having lived in different countries and experienced a variety of cultures has broadened my perspective and enriched me both as a person and as an artist. I constantly search for new mediums to express different aspects of my cultural background.

… they said. ‘And people will connect with it.’ So this flawed, messy, sensitive, complicated, detailed, structured, over-delivering mix of blues and greys with the occasional pops of hot colour is kinda who I am.

If you love age-worn surfaces, wild seas, blousy blue hydrangeas, windswept beaches, old jeans, cobbled streets, faded velvet, moments of synchronicity, and finding meaning and connection in everyday things … well … we’re probably going to hit it off!

I’m drawn to the patina of age – to imperfect beauty – to textures and details in urban and coastal environments. For me, they echo the many layers of emotions and experiences that we hold within us and which make us who we are.
