He also likes to draw scenes from movies and Hollywood stars. ”Since childhood I have loved to draw and it has become a second language for me. Drawing has always been there to express myself in happy moments and times of difficulty, and gave me the ability to express what I feel at that moment. I have always loved to draw people and portraits and in general the human body for its beauty and vulnerability has always fascinated me. In the last three years, I started going out to paint on the boulevard or on the roof or simply take pictures in the city and then paint the streets and buildings that I see every day and rediscover the city. I like to work in a variety of materials from colored pencils to watercolors or oil and enjoy feeling the childish excitement before I start drawing. I studied illustration at Vital College, which later merged with Shankar. Later I learned the basics of oil painting at the station studio in Tel Aviv. I presented a solo exhibition and also participated in various group exhibitions in recent years.''
