View from my former studio at Davidka Square, where the light rail now runs. The play of geometric shadows was a continuing interest and challenge.

Watching the change of seasons overlooking Jaffa Road helped me discover the subtle shifts of color in the dim winter light.

With the Old City to my back and a distant view ahead, the expanse of Jerusalem hillsides opens up.

During my time as an international fellow at the Vermont Studio Center, I found the everyday scenes pulled me. After many years in Israel, it felt like I was seeing my native surroundings for the first time, with new eyes.

The lush rushing rivers of Vermont were salves to my soul. Many years in arid Israel gave me a great appreciation for the dense greens of pine forests and the complexities of natural stone as it met the streams.

With fading light, studying the apparent simplicity of the river carrying a biblical name was satasfying.

Here I was drawn to the intersection of horizontal and vertical elements, and to the contrasts between man-made and natural subjects in the same motif.

There is something about the old apartment blocks of Jerusalem that appeals to me. These buildings, far from objectively beautiful, speak of observing everyday life over decades, making their own silent urban poetry.
