Guest artist: Orna Livni
Topic: Color and Light from Tel Aviv
“My name is Orna Livni. I was born in Tel Aviv, Israel. In many of my works you will see the influence of growing up in Tel Aviv, Israel, where art, music and ballet were an integral part of my daily life.
“I saw a passion for music and dance in my father and a love of the arts in my friends and their families. No matter where you walked, there were museums and galleries. My journey, begun in the cultural centers and streets of Tel Aviv, shaped the person I am today.
“I moved with my family to L.A. about 10 years ago. The impact of moving to L.A. opened my horizons and deepened my expression as an artist.
“I plan on continuing to explore and discover my creative expression, not only through painting but also by experimenting and delving into design—I’d like to design spaces, clothes, shoes, and accessories. I would like to try my hand at performance art. Most important, I hope to keep growing and developing as a person and would like that growth to continue to express itself in my work.”
Thank you to orna for donating an acrylic and mixed media work for the CAA Scholarship Fund raffle.
