When seeking inspiration for wonderful works of art, for the color and harmony around us, we look at nature, capture a butterfly with our camera and pore over wonderful folktales and myths. The Bible for me is all of the above and more so, it's the most widely read and most popular book in the world, and is also a wonderful collection of stories filled with poetic richness, imagination and heroes, which had captured the interest of billions of people around the world since the beginning of time. For years, while pursuing my path as an author of books that were, in one way or another, related to the Bible's heroes and spirituality, I also pursued my path as an artist who always looks for inspiration for her works, in the wonderful descriptions hidden amongst the pages of the Bible. For you, painting enthusiasts and those who have not yet tried painting, I am pleased to open a gateway to a magical world where you can simultaneously paint the illustrations based on my paintings and delve into King Solomon's love stories, Jerusalem's landscapes heaven and inspirational prophecies. How should you paint? Use colored pencils or markers, thin or thick, provided they will allow the coloring to flow easily and with pleasure. Try "complementary colors" use the colors red and green or yellow and purple, side by side if you want to create a dramatic contrast. Use the colors adjacent to each other on the "color wheel", such as yellow and pastel orange, or pink and purple, or light blue and green if you want to create a more harmonious mark. Remember to leave white spaces if you use a wide range of colors, to emphasize the main parts.
