Facing South, Tel Aviv
From my south-facing balcony, Tel Aviv unfolds in rooftops, sun boilers, and towers that rise against the evening sky. The city is restless, ever-changing, yet full of warmth. This painting was inspired by the quiet intensity of Antonio López García’s urban views, which I once had the privilege to see in person. Tel Aviv keeps building, keeps shifting — and painting it is my way of holding onto this fleeting horizon.
