About the artist
I paint the places I travel to and the quiet corners I return to, slowly, in layers, until the light feels right.
I am an individual painter, who primarily paints in oil. I paint in a home studio, and participate in painting activities in other studios in my area.
I present my work in exhibitions, and sell to individuals.

In their words
“Ilan painted the view from the house I grew up in, working only from a few old photographs. The first time I saw it on the wall I had to sit down. It carries the feeling of that place, not just the shapes.”
