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.

Swim Lesson
The same young girl appears mulitple times in her swim lesson diving, kicking, and springing while simultaneously standing and staring...at herself in the pool. (22 x 16 in) Nfs. Variations available. In honor of Sadie.
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.
