In order to fulfill my dreams I always go against the flow

It happened before that I have found myself a few times in caves.  Well, The best thing that can happen to you if you find yourself in a cave is of course to find the way out. But sometimes I go into the cave in order to seek for the darkness , to test my limits, appreciate the lights in my life. and precisely there - in the complete darkness, things become clearer ...

The difference between dark and light is so clear when you are inside a cave, that you know your way out easily, but in real life this is a little bit more difficult to grasp.

We do not always realize when we are inside the cave and when we are outside and that makes things harder for us to go to the right direction or to see weather our actions are not effective - especially if we work without methods (system).


One of the things that makes it even harder for us to move to the right direction is an unsupportive environment.


In my personal life I do not have a single person that is unsupportive or negative.

once a year I check my contacts and see if all the people there are helping me to grow and I find that there is someone negative that got in there by mistake I delete him from my life. life is hard as it is. We dont need to add more difficulties from the close people around us.

This process keep me sharp and help me enjoy life to the maximum.

I think that in order to grow you have to be inspired by people that make you feel good and have positive thinking prosess. It sure makes drawing much more fun!
This is why I love creating while i am travelling around the world...

please let me know your thoughts..

as parents you want to enjoy lots of activities with your children.

Can We Learn How to Draw as Parents Too?

today i have met more than 100 kids around the ages of 5-8 for several sessions of comics and drawing on stones. in one of the sessions came to me one of the guides - a 25 years old  woman and showed me her drawings that she have made during the lesson.

she was amazed more than the children that she could make such beautiful drqaiwngs such these. she told me that before using my "drawing easily" technique she was drawing like a 5 year old child and now, after she met me she feels like she can draw lots of things and at least now she know where to start the drawing from.

I was thrilled to hear her, and became exited about it alot cause it reminded me of my father.
when i was 14 i drew exactly like a 5 years old child and when i asked my father to show me how to draw he sat down with me for about an hour and i still have this first drawing that we did together.

comparing the 2 drawings: before and after my lesson with my father - you couldnt believe that the same person drew them both within the hour.

so today a complete stranger took me back about 21 years!
so I have just wanted to say thank you for that!



so for those of you that are parents now - dont be afraid to start drawing.
it is so much fun and so easy to learn.

i love it if you just try and tell me how it was.
choose one of my "how to draw" books and just give it a try!

why most people dont know how to draw

As a comics teacher I meet lots of children and adults of different ages and different levels of drawing skills.

These meetings help me realise what are the main problems that most of the students have.

most of the time I start the seminars with a question: is there anybody who have studies comics before or people that already know how to draw?

Many students in elementary school have a comics class as part of their lessons at school.

When I ask them how their teacher teach them to draw their first comic characters most of them tell me that they learn to draw using simple geometric shapes, however, this is not always easy for them and they dont always know how to continue their drawing after drawing these geometric shapes.

The geometrical shapes technique is an old method of drawing and it doesnt make things easy for the beginners

this is the same method that I had when I was a child.
One of the things I remember from my childhood was that when I tried to draw with this drawing method and I found myself stuck and confuse what to do next when I could not finish the drawing's steps.

farther more, it made me frustrated and my confidence was destroyed.


It turns out that this problem still exists and many comics teachers still use it with beginners.

Since I could not draw the things I wanted with this drawing method I invented an alternative method of drawing that would help me draw the things I wanted much more easily.

After many years my drawing method called "easy drawing" and is considered the best method of drawing for beginners and people that loves to draw.

over the years I see more and more comics teachers that buy my contents and teach these students how to use this method..


My painting method "easy drawing" show you how you can draw just about anything with 4 easy steps.


there is not a single figure in the world that cant be drawn with these 4 steps of my drawing method no matter how complex the character you want to draw.


try now and see how easy drawing can be!
