Talia Lehavi is an artist, who works with water-based pigments, powders, and Japanese black ink. Her work invites meditation upon nature and its relationship with colour, light and movement through painting. About Talia My work invites meditation upon nature and its relationship with colour, light and movement. As I draw or paint, I gradually unravel the underlying qualities of balance and harmony within my subject matter. What interests me most is observing the formation of line and pattern: from the blades of grasses to a bird’s feather; from the shifting of clouds to the beat of my heart; from the maps of stars in heaven to the trunk of an old oak tree. I continuously strive to reveal beauty and elegance within the natural rhythm of life and look to my art as a place of well-being, empowerment and inner peace. The materials I love to use are water-based pigments, powders, and Japanese black ink. These are natural and organic and are deeply connected to earth and nature. They afford a rich palette of hues and allow for both extreme precision and flow of movement. I am captivated by the way they blend together and create a whole that is more than its' individual parts. Occasionally, I also add hints of gold and silver, as these reflect light differently at each hour of the day, changing the glow of the work from within. My work is an attempt to find and enjoy a moment in time. The materials I use embrace that moment, echoing their mark on the paper or canvas, and becoming eternal for a short while. I am keen to explore images that can stand the test of time, that would still be of fascination in years to come, and yet are potent in the here in now. I hope that others understand my work with their hearts and emotions; that they are touched and moved by it, and that it evokes a sense of balance, hope, and joy. EXHIBITIONS Work on display Exhibiting both in the UK and internationally, Talia is known for her cross-disciplinary paintings, prints and ceramic tiles.

Known as 'the four treasures ' , these carry a long tradition of craftsmanship in their own right and their quality varies from a simple student's kit to a highly-prized, collectible, hand-made sets. Paper is made of various percentages of kozo fiber (made from the bark of mulberry bush). It can vary in thickness, shade and size. The brush, made of natural animal hair, varies in hardness, size and shape. The ink stick, known as sumi, is made out of soot or coal dust, traditionally mixed with essential oils and natural glue to form a solid stick. This black solid ink has a range of shades of black and a variety of translucency. The ink-stone, known as suzuri, is traditionally made out of slate, which has a rough surface upon which to grind the ink.

Ink Dragons painting by Talia Lehavi. Protective, funny and hidden dragons. < Back Ink Dragons Ink marks are but notes in time, echo of a moment passing by. This art-form is both ancient in its Chinese and Japanese origin as well as contemporary and universal in expression and practice. Guardians of the Way (Tao), Champions of those who persist and don't give up, vehicles of the immortals who live on this plain carrying the wisdom of the ages, are but some of the roles which dragons are portrayed in. Mischievous, playful and powerful beings, dragons are known to be shape shifters. Able to grow and shrink in size in an instant, appear and disappear at will, while using water, mist, clouds and rain as their place of dwelling. One famous story, tells of a time of great drought in Japan, when a well known artist was called to help.. he painted a dragon amongst clouds.. the painting was so fantastic, that when the artist have finished it, by making a black dot for the eye as his last ink-mark, the dragon came to life, flew off the paper, and on to the sky... clouds began forming up, and soon after, rain was coming down. shop this gallery
