about me
I am an illustrator and designer whose work focuses primarily on children’s books, while also extending to magazines, newspapers, and a variety of other visual projects. I have collaborated with prominent authors and publications worldwide.
My artwork has been exhibited in various festivals & exhibitions around the world.
Drawing has been part of my life since I could hold a crayon. Long before I could read, I would listen to stories and picture them in my imagination. That love of storytelling and drawing grew over the years – and eventually became my career.
I graduated with honors from the Department of Visual Communication at Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design. My graduation short animation film, Some Space for Tomorrow, was screened at international film festivals, and I later worked as an animator and designer for children’s TV, magazines, newspapers, and various clients. That experience still shapes my illustration work today, as I aim to bring a sense of movement and energy to every piece.
These days, I focus mainly on children’s books, collaborating with wonderful writers and publishers. Books I have illustrated have been published internationally and were warmly received. In my work I combine traditional techniques – such as colored pencils and watercolors – with digital tools, creating a blend of classical and contemporary approaches. I love creating images full of warmth, humor, and playfulness.
I’ve also participated in exhibitions and festivals, sharing my work with a wider audience. You can find more details about exhibitions, festivals and awards below.
