About
the Artist
Yorum Gal
"Since 1977 I have been writing
plays and screenplays, painting, directing, acting
and producing shows for my own traveling theater company.
My acting career has taken me across the continents
as I have appeared in Israeli, British and American
movies. All the while designing sceneries for my plays
and actively exhibiting in shows of my paintings.
"Old Jaffa has been my home
since 1978. I can't think of a more inspiring place
to work. I am married to writer/director/producer
Nill DolanGal and we have a beautiful 6-year old son
Nimrod.
I paint in oil watercolors and also
work in combined technique on canvas. My works are
often characterized by rich colors, sensual drama,
and lyricism. I love watercolors and use a great variety
of different sorts of them combined in a special mixture
to give the brightness and contrasts intensity and
softness I like."
