So the time has come to officially close this drawing blog project.

It went on for 3 years, capturing a spectrum of emotions and unbelievable things.

•

I want to thank you so much for being interested and making me get up every day and draw. It’s been the backbone of my life for so long, longer than I ever thought possible.

•

To celebrate this project’s end (and the beginning of new ones), I exhibited 100 drawings on the walls of the Alfred Gallery in Tel-Aviv. My first, and hopefully not last ,gallery show.

Here are some images from the space, photographed by Ariel Caine.

The good news are, I already have a new blog (yes, it’s addictive).

It’s different than this one, free-er, I think. Please please please check it out. It’s in Hebrew, but I’m sure Google Translate can do a good job at translating my simple words.

So thank you again. It’s been a pleasure, really.

A new small painting I’ve been working on for the last couple of days.

The image was on my mind a very long time, so it’s a relief to get rid of it, in a way.

(the black is a shimmery black nail polish that absolutely wouldn’t get scanned nicely).

Hi everyone!

I haven’t been updating regularly for awhile, but with good reason. I’m working hard on putting together an exhibition of the work I’ve done for this blog from the last three years.

It will be up somwhere around the end of January at the Alfred gallery in Tel-Aviv

It’s amazing that I did this for so long, the first post was published on January 16th 2010!

More than 500 posts later, I can’t even start to describe what working on this project did for me personally and artistically, it’s pretty amazing.

♥

This isn’t the end of the blog, but maybe the start of the end (which will definitely be the start of something else).

♥

Anyway… I feel like this needs some kind of summary before and if I continue on, and that’s what my show is for. Also it will be an opportunity to hopefully meet some of you who’ve been kind enough to be interested in what I do and the stupid things I say.

I’m gonna post an official invitation as soon as I have it.

♥

Other than that: HAPPY NEW YEAR and all. I wish you a beautiful new year and the ability to see all that beauty.

You were bigger, brighter and whiter than snow

Screamed at the make believe, screamed at the sky

And you finally found all your courage to let it all go
