Just returned from a day and half trip to the north where I teach art once in two weeks in this lovely kibbutz called Yir’on. The weather is exceptionally warm which makes it ideal for landscape painting, so this is exactly what I did. Packed my portable easel and did some sketching in the sun.Yiron is famous for its apples and in recent years, also a very good wine that has a considerable popularity, at least here in Israel.Actually I included this winery in my outdoor sketching that was right near where I stood and luckily the color of the winery blended well with the colors of the landscape.

I have to commend these two architects, Weinstein and Vaadia, who seem to be very mindful of the surrounding Nature. Thank to both of you, guys.
