The house at the edge of the light
A landscape painting in oil on wood, all open space and soft light. Hay bales in a harvested wheat field at the beginning of an Israeli summer. The delicate colors and the old wooden window frame give the work a warm and sensitive presence of open space, bringing it into the heart of the home.
Sharon Yohay
Painting nearby landscapes. On the backs of wooden boards that cross my path. The shape of the wood and its natural texture participate in the lines of the work, and the colors give the old wood a renewed vitality. Painting the shades of light in the clouds and the horizon lines I have never seen before. A booklet of the landscape from an internal perspective. And each time anew, the heart discovers what it seeks within a renewed picture of reality. "I think your paintings are self-portraits. From what little I know of you" [Bella Vay Korlak] "Sharon's beautiful and interesting painting combines three different styles. The lower part is an abstract red stain, the trees and houses are naive style and the sky is a precise figurative realism. The combination of different styles in one painting is a rare phenomenon that creates confusion in understanding the image, not so in this good painting." [Milo Shore, painter and curator]
