    Located in New York, NY
    This beautiful realist landscape painting by Ayelet was painted near her studio just south of Caesarea in Israel. It comes with wooden frame and ready to hang. "The majority of my work focuses on landscapes and animals. My painting process combines both painting in open air, and in studio. It involves long, direct and investigative observation of the object. whether it's landscape, still life or portrait. At my work, I try to faithfully represent the light and open spaces while expressing my own private experience. In addition, I explore the medium of painting and the elements of form in the art of painting. The mediums I use for my paintings and drawing are oil colors and charcoal while using traditional classic techniques. My paintings are a window to reality as seen by my eyes my mind and soul."
