I studied fine art in Europe, Israel, and USA.Showing  from 1978 in galleries and museums  including Germany, Hungary, Israel, France, Italy, U.S, Japan, and Sweden.
I like to use a variety of media and art techniques to create large  sizes  works of art.
To relax and meditate I go towards printmaking and installation art.


Brief study with Victor Vasarely  I consider a mile stone in my early career.
The large scale of he’s painting and the force of optical illusion all this influenced my art.

My art often reflects the way I live: action, motion, and the movement of my body are important in the work I do. I draw and paint intuitively in the studio, or stage so that the work bit has a sense of place 

My paintings are processed based and evolved from representational art to more complex abstract works  with two or more materials: marble dust, and aluminum, wood and aluminum and other combinations. In the 1990’s I made works which had a distinct ‘inside’ and ‘outside,’ both of which were visible. These pieces also had a feeling that they had a past and that random, de constructive effects were at work on their appearance. As theoretical as these were, they were still made using free improvisation.
