I grew up in Ein Hod, an artists’ colony on the western slopes of Mt. Carmel, overlooking the
Mediterranean Sea.
I have always known that my heart lies with art, and started practicing visual arts at a young
age. Over the years, I studied Ecological Gardening,Ancient Crafts,Teaching and Natural Art.
I am married to Luna and we are the proud parents of lovely Atom, Hunter and Itamar, who
like to work with me in the garden and to sit around a bonfire for a singalong.
I very much like the sense of community and togetherness, which has led to my fascination
with Palm-Leaf Weaving --- an ancient craft that enables you to create basket-ware, artifacts
and ornaments --- where everyone sits together, as a tribe, and creates something
beautiful. It is a combination of a communal environment and solitary, unique creativity.
I invite you to joinme in creating camels from palm-leaves, in a special desert environment.
