Location: Israel
Website:

I was born in 1951 in Israel, father to 3 children and grandfather to 5 grandchildren.

Education: Bachelor of economy and business managements.

Education in art: Hans Kantor Studio, Tel-Aviv, Israel

Occupation: ICL-IP, I did several jobs in the area of Logistics, Quality Assurance, Information Systems, managing in different subjects, and now I am Project Manager in the Supply Chain.

Hobbies: Woodcarving, Photographing, Traveling.

Individual Exhibition: 2004 Photographs "There is Some Where" Hod-Hasharon, Israel
Group Exhibition:
"Festival Israel", Jerusalem, 2005 – with one of my woodcarving projects.
"Slivers, - woodcarving students of Hans Kantor studio", 2006, Tel-Aviv, Israel. – With one of my woodcarving projects.
"60 Years of Independence" Maitar, Israel, 2008 – with one of my woodcarving projects.

Publications:
Wood Carving Magazine, UK. Issue 9-10/2004
Wood Carving Magazine, UK. Issue 1-2/2006

Declaration about my art:
Photographing – I define myself more as a "Picture Hunter" rather than as a Photographer. I don't stage a situation or a picture. I am traveling equipped with my camera and once I am exited from scenery, situation or an image, I pull out the camera and shoot to capture one moment of the experience – moment which will represent the whole experience which is in my mind.

Woodcarving: The woodcarving in my eyes is like a couple dancing, the trunk and the figure which is in my mind.
During the dance, the trunk undress not necessary parts and the image are dressing its shape, the image is known in advance but the grain and the shade which the image will wear, unknown and become clear during the carving dance.

Hi dear friends,
Thanks a lot for the warm welcoming, I already saw that I found a great place to learn from you, get inspiration, encourage from you. I will do my steps here slowly, since still the woodcarving is my hobby and I didn’t retired yet from my job for living.
I hope to be able not to be addicted to this nice site but I understand that it is not so easy.

Thank to all of you
Eli

Eli, I always wanted to learn how to carve, so I asked an elderly wood carver one day how to whittle an elephant. He said that was easy…....just whittle away everything that doesn’t look like an elephant. Guess what? I never ended up with an elephant! I will admit, I have done a little whittleing, but no carving. big difference!. Your work is beautiful!
