Unheard Melodies | 2025

“Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter.” – John Keats

From the A Peace of Land series, this painting was inspired by early morning walks through the local park in Beit Shemesh—a full sensory experience. Cool air before the sun’s first warmth, the rhythm of footsteps on winding paths, the quiet hum of distant deliveries, and the wild beauty of an English-style garden that seems to have arranged itself by happy accident.

Painting it felt like chasing a kind of music—fast and instinctive, then slow and searching—until a visual harmony finally emerged. A moment of stillness and sound intertwined.
