In 1950 I was born in Kibbutz Kfar Hamaccabi, Israel, where I lived until 1988. As
a kibbutz-member I was not able to take a complete study at an art-college. Therefore
I followed evening-lessons drawing for many years. In 1984 I finally got the permission
to study creative art at the university. My study at the university of Haifa was
combined with Comparative Literature and took three years. I have learned there a lot
about various forms of Creative Art. As follows, I decided to dedicate my interest on
photography. My final project was children photography.
Since 1988 I live in Doetinchem, The Netherlands, and work as a
freelance-photographer and painter. In my commercial work I fulfil requests from particulars and companies as commissioned work. Wishing to combine my photography with
drawing and painting, I began to mix them in my artistic work. It began in 1992
with photo collages and took another form in 1996 with body-paintings.
