The Brazen serpent by Tintoretto

As a street painter I worked directly on pavement, then i move to paper and later on
we move to work on  prepared canvas and making a Large scale copies of the old Masters.

I choose Tintoretto because i always felt very close to him and to his work. Once i heard that on the entrance to his studio was written: "draw like Michael angelo, paint like Leonardo da vinci"; so in my opinion he was one of the first frustrated painter, very aware of his time. and  still has a great faith and commitment.

Brazent serpent by Tintoretto

250cm.X 340cm.

done on Israel and Europe streets in the 80^th.

We Prepared the canvas using Red Venetian color; Industrial water base paint, mix with pimess. The pimsse make the surface rough to hold the pastel in. We prepared it in the open air, on Passeo de gracia avenues in Barcelona. Then, rolling it, flying back home to Tel Aviv Start Working and draw it inside.

The painting done on three large pieces of canvas attached  together.
 useing crossaching drawing technique, using soft brushes and home made pastels; sometime, in particular ocasion i used the expensive 1 $ Rembrandt pastels.

First, grid and copy it with sepia pencil and then use some light Acrilic wash. The Venetian red background used as warm flesh skin tone. when some of the drawing done, and the background acrylic wash paint in, I went out on Dizingof street in Tel Aviv with the upper part of the painting and continue working on it on the street..

Then back to Europe keep working on the painting moving frome town to town,
 mainly in England,
 The setup in England was just perfect. First, there was no competition. the most professional street painters preferred to stay on the other side of the canal, So we had the whole british island for us.
 Thanks to M. Thatcher The setup of The  pedestrian english streets in the 80th was just perfect to us and to our paintings. No destruction by trafic and enough space to our 'way too big pictures'. most of the time we were the only attraction on the street, and the crowd was generous, curious, and had a lot of cash in his pockets..

My inner dialog mixed up with my painting diary.

I insist to make my painting visible, so, i create them.

starting the working day in my studio, there is always some mood i have to deal with and be aware of. 

trying to define part of my painting process.

my aim today is to reduce the amount of emotions involve, and still feel content with the result.

moving the hand from side to side the paint go with it, create a new order. i am happier now.

In different places at the same time, different people come to the same conclusions.

 Someone could define it as STYLE.

I keep working on it, see how far can i go with this frenetic piece. It's not the end yet..

It was hard to make the decision when to stop this dance. i felt like i can keep going on and on.

An evidence for the passed day.

an evidence for the passed day. using  classical elements and tools like canvas, oil painting and some spatula. some paintings are very similar one to each other, not because it is a series, but because of the Repetition of my consciousness fluctuations. i can't ask for any meaning, idea or content. i simply stuck to my very own present and trying to follow it and present it, make it visible with the little i have

Street painting. The stories behind my Story. Our red/white Dutch VW model 79

The paintings was rolled, packed inside the plastic tubes on top of the car.
Our VW looks like a perfect  official professional plumber van, so we never had a problems with the authorities . we  parked everywhere.  always  trying  to choose  the most spectacular, exiting, peacefull spots.

Street painting mean Working on the street. Working on the street mean living on the road

Crossing the 80^th and Europe with our red/white VW.

sometime we were lucky to mix work and pleasure

Not to forget our first commitment, we made all the way to Basel, to be updated with the art world's  latest news

sometime looking at it from distance it's gave me  the whole different perspective on this lifestyle.

In a garage in Barcelona. Prepare the car for Christmas. The cold season. Heating and fog lights

in Milan. Christmas time. the frost starting to thaw on the windshield. The cold was the hardest part of it all.

England. We spent there many summers. Once you leave the main road all the roads are opened to you.

  Heavy and satisfying. end of the day counting the money.



inside our wheels palace a rare moment of rest



our days off was mostly on raining days.

end of the Season. on the way back to Spain

i remember in Luzern in Switzerland, every year,  we were always back to same place under the same tree.

somewhere in west mid France

looking for property was a great excuse to travel around the area we liked. explore it and get to know the local people.
