Edna Pinchover
Edna, started painting after a long career as a school principal. Edna expresses her intense passion for painting in bright colors, with a childlike tone and attention to detail. As a student of the painter Aviva Sonsino, she dedicated herself to naive painting, documenting her memories and stories from the village life of her childhood (Hibat Zion).
Her works are made with acrylic paints, and sometimes writing is combined. In her works, descriptions of episodes from everyday life, and events from her childhood years that characterized the sixties in Israel, from a personal and original perspective. The paintings are drawn on a canvas, which is pasted on another canvas, which expands the story of the subject and frames it.
The joy of life, the love of color and the use of ornamental components are an integral part of Edna's unique style.
