New Israeli artist at Jewish gifts
Hi All,
I want to introduce you to new artist from Israel that makes wonderful paintings for kids – Guychook. Although not making traditionally Jewish gifts, I still want you to know this important artist. Guychook writes about:
Guychook (Guy), An animator, a husband and a full-time dad, the artist has studied animation in the Bezalel Academy of Art. The inspiration for the paintings came two years ago after the birth of his daughter. From babies and fairies to children and swinging animals, the subjects of his paintings come from a world of beautiful fantasy. He shares the vision behind the art: "the pictures I draw are meant to put a smile on anyone who looks at them. I have had this need since childhood, to simply make people laugh."
