My new, recently discovered favourite israeli artist is Eliyahu Sidi.

Eliyahu Sidi, a French born Jerusalem artist has been creating for the past 40 years paintings and sculptures illustrating Jewish texts. His art is playful, cartoon-style, childlike and full of color, which makes him unique in my opinion. The sacred and the secular, the traditional and the modern subjects are mixed in his art. He has created imaginative pictures of Hebrew letters, blessings, a Haggadah, the Song of Solomon, and the Scroll of Esther. By incorporating text into his narrative paintings and illustrations, he continues a long tradition among Jewish painters in Jerusalem and Safed, with its roots in the late nineteenth century.
