Ira for his art:
I can define my art as a mix between abstract realism and abstract expressionism. I play with colors, abstract shapes and spots. I work regularly in different techniques and like to experiment with different materials and knowledge.
My goal is to create a personal work that contains variations that never end. Many of my paintings consist of layers and thicknesses, and some are with more transparent colors, with lots of water and spontaneous brush movements.
I get inspiration from everything that is beautiful and joyful around me. I strongly believe that we are living in a wonderful world full of joy and positivism. When I paint, it's a lot of fun and a lot of fun. Through my art I want to share the good energy and the joy of life with others.
