Opera Poster

The final project of illustrating course in “Minshar” art college was a fascinating one. We had a class competition designing a poster for an opera and the winner’s design gets to be the real poster of that opera! cool. The opera people said they want something young and different, so after some pondering around, I went wild. Anyway, I assumed it’s more just that someone that actually will make a living from this will win, so I could feel free. The opera is Verdi’s “La Forza del Destino”. By the way, the opera’s people didn’t like it claiming it was “too young and different”. whatever…

Nude Cutout

This is a cutout work I did in “Minshar” art college. The technique was very frustrating, since I made such works before in the computer, and making vegetables the hard way wasn’t a good idea in my opinion. The minute we got homework, I asked for permission to change the subject and was happy to at least do something interesting.

Comics children t-shirt

comics children t-shirt

This is the third T-shirt I designed for OKAY (Israeli comic book collectors and readers). The idea was someone else’s, I don’t remember who. it says: “OKAY – because comics isn’t a child’s game”. The father is reading Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra’s “Y-the last man” and the kid is reading “The Barker”, paraphrazing on the name of an Israeli daily economics newspaper called “the Marker”.

Phoenix Digi-Tribal

A computer enhanced cutout piece, I couldn’t place on any other gallery. I like it – it’s a nice cutout work – and the digital background gives it a nice twist.

Centaur Tribal

This is one of my favorites. I think it has a lot of flow in it. Besides, it’s my two favorite drawing subjects combined, so what could go wrong?

Extacy

One of my favorite tribals. I was thinking about X-men’s Storm when I did it. The sketch was kept as is, I just filled it in with black to try and keep it free and simple. I think that came out perfect. Sometimes I feel the flow and movement get lost in the final piece – here it didn’t happen.

Ex-Libris

A beloved piece I made a long time ago. When we got an exercise of making an ex-libris, it was a natural choice. This is a nice example to what I like in the tribal drawings – the clean line, the simplicity.

Sitting Woman Tribal

I’m not sure what this was about, but hey, I like it. By the way, it’s among the first cutout drawings I did.

Vampirela Tribal

I did this with pencil and my husband asked me to try and “tribal it up”. A simple yet strong tribal, that he decided to call “Vampirella”, god knows why.

Bar Rouge Tribal

A tribal version based upon another pencil drawing I did. Ofer liked it and asked me to process it into a tribal. Looking at it now I feel there’s more to fix than keep, but it’s nostalgic, so I’m keeping it.

Our Wedding Invitation

This is the fore graphic of our wedding invitation. We posed for it in a picture, which was terrible. I didn’t even use the reference picture because it was fuzzy and smeared. I liked that invitation a lot – though if it would have been less expansive, I would have printed it as white on black.

Tribal Girl

This is one of the first, if not THE first, cutout work I did. It’s small and simple, but I like the movement in it.

Japanese Lady

I think this piece is something of an external influence, though I’m not sure which. I just sketched it and thought it could be a nice cutout piece.

Unicorn

When I got released from the army, I made printed glasses to the closest people I was stationed with, as a gift. I wanted to give one of my commanders something horse related, it was sort of an old time joke for us. The thing is the only horses’ drawings I had that would turn out nicely were kept for other folks’ glasses, and I wanted him to have something special. I made this unicorn in about an hour including paint, and I think he liked it.

Flower Sprite

When I got released from the army, I made printed glasses to the closest people I was stationed with, as a gift. There were two friends of mine that nothing I had in the portfolio felt like it would fit them. So I did this tribal thinking about them.
