Hi!
My name is Moshe.
I am a painter I paint with oils on canvas.
I only discovered painting at university. I studied at the Bezalel Academy of Fine Arts and design where I discovered that I love colors. I like the interactions between them. I also like the relationships that shapes have with each other. In every painting that I paint, I try to challenge myself and find something new. A new discovery, a new color, or just a new subject that I find fascinating. I call my paintings “abstract landscapes” because they almost always end up being landscape paintings. Some look more like landscapes than others. They are always a view into another world. In my painting practice, I use a base layer of acrylics and then come on top with the oil paint. I don't always have a plan or a blueprint for the painting I am working on, in fact, many times I start off the painting without knowing what will happen. I enjoy that. It adds a sense of adventure for me every time I enter the studio. I feel like I begin a new adventure with each painting. I hope to take the viewer on the adventure with me. Many times there is a spiritual element to my art. In that way, I am reminded of romantic painters such as Caspar David Friedrich. I hope my paintings inspire you as much as they inspire me.
