I see, sketchbook in hand. Gestures, costumes, energy, light and form unfold, moving through me to paper. Later, I recompose the images with color and sometimes, the stamps inherited from my father.

Soldier Rockettes
The Rockettes as Nutcracker soldiers in domino formation. Drawn during a live performance of the 75th Anniversary Christmas Spectacular. In honor of Pete and Cheryl. Sold. (8 x 4 in)
The stamps that appear in most of the paintings are from my father's (z'l) collection of First Day Issued Covers of Israel. They inspire color selection and add a collage effect. The stamps are so beautiful for their color and content, for the historical events and people they commemorate, that they had to be shared.
A Growing Collection
New paintings are continuously added to this site. Please visit again to see the changing LIZO Collection.
Commissions
If you like a piece that has been sold or gifted, you may commission something similar.
Each work retains its originality through variations in composition, paper, color, size and/or stamps.
