Israeli Portrait 4
A bright acrylic painting on canvas that takes the viewer into what initially seems as a peaceful calming landscape full of nature and open fields. However, the skies tell a completely different story, showing missiles' interception mushrooms, a view Israelies know more than well, as part of their landscape. Peace is constantly challanged by war!
