I need to draw more!
Monday, February 16, 2009
Shir's Hands I thought that I would be drawing a full model. (I was making up for a class that I had missed, and sat in on another.) Little did I know that the challenge would be even bigger. Hands. This actor has the big expressive hands and toes like fingers
I am Jerusalem artist, creating primarily (though not only) Jewish art. My work, including older illustrations and graphic design can be viewed at my more formal website: http://www.mazalart.com/
More work, also including sketches and experiments can be viewed
I was born in the US, and have been living and creating in Jerusalem since 1980. At times, I feel like an acrobat, bouncing between two competing, yet complementary cultures. Likewise, my artwork is a balancing act: I juggle my commitments to serious artistic concerns, and to Jewish traditions and beliefs, with pleasure from adventures in colour, pattern and temperament.
