Marina Grechanik Artist, Illustrator, Urban Sketcher, Art Educator Hello, my name is Marina Grechanik, I graduated from an Art College in Mink, Belorussia.

Sketchcrawl to Tivon

Image
Last sketchcrawl we were invited to by local sketchers to come to north and colorful Tivon!  We met in Mumus - hummus restaurant, which is also a gallery and place for music shows, really atmospheric place! From there we continued to the central square of the town - where was a jazz concert. Close the noon to the square came group of school children - demonstrating against the climate crisis.  I was impressed by Tivon very much - the place where the owner of hummus place is and artist, and his workers are musicians as well. Place where there is a jazz concert at the square and children demonstrate worrying about the earth. It was so different from tel Aviv, and so wonderful! Thanks to everybody who joined us!
