Yeah I have Lots of Jewish family in Israël, been there many times and Visited Jerusalem once: it just BLEW me away. Those ancient city walls and churches standing there for well over 5000 years. It always stayed with me.
My grandparents from my Father's side, before they moved to Israël, were Sephardic Jews who lived in Morocco so I have always had a love for Middle Eastern Culture, art and people. Playing way too much Prince of persia and listening to Chassidic Jewish music, Klezmer,(Music my Musician Dad plays alot at Celebrations & Weddings etc...) Arabic Folk, persian Folk I always stayed in those vibes.

It bleeds my Heart to see the Devision and hatred between all these closely related brother-cultures and thus I always unite them in drawings of mine. My fantasy is the only place where they are peacefull and flurish in unison.

East is where the Magic comes from


PS: @ Ophelia: My mom placed a greasy oven-tray on it -_- But izzokay. It's not like it's completely ruined.
