ultraMARIN Sketch

In September we've been on a small family vacation in Eilat. I went diving for the first time in my life with my daughter, it was really cool! I wish I could sketch under the water! Until then, here are some sketches that I did above the water :)

After two years of break due to Corona, the festival is back with double power. Every time again, it's so fun to dive into it - the community of Israeli indie music lovers, such a diverse family, including all ages and backgrounds and at the same time carefully filtered by the ... music. Three days passed in one moment, as soon as I arrived, music, like a tiny pieces of sand that are floating here in the desert, flew and filled every free space inside me. I wandered around for three days, armed by a sketchbook and pencils, trying to also absorb and flow, but at the same time also to filter and select - a tough task ... And again this magic of music and sketching worked like magic - the combination, synergy, one plus one is worth much more than two .. I will let the drawings tell the rest. It was...

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!
