Tz'fat (Safed)

When we first made Aliya to HaAretz we lived in the small town of Tz'fat. We chose to  live there because whenever someone heard that I was an artist they kept saying, "oh, have you been to Tz'fat?" I hadn't but learned that there was an artists colony there (actually it had happened in the fifties, and was really over by the seventies.) So I arrived in Tz'fat in a truly experimental frame of mind. The works I have uploaded here reflect that state of mind, I was searching for myself in a sea of changes.
