We’ve curated a selection of incredible frum female artists whose art has caught our eye, and posed some fundamental questions to them
Chaya (Hazan) Carlebach: I like to call my art intuitive. It begins in my heart and then makes its way to the canvas. I am self-taught, and I believe that in the art world, rules are there to be broken. Yes, there are certain important bases and techniques, but it’s so important to take those and make them your own.
I must feel what I’m painting; I love using thick layers of paint and creating textured unique pieces that stand out and are full of life and color.
Chaya Toron: I view my painting process as a bunch of grounding actions to bring my dreamy visions to reality. It’s a subtle dance of the creativity aspect and also taking the paintbrush and using it! I create mostly Judaic-themed artwork with different mediums such as watercolor, oils, acrylics, and ink. Soft, muted colors speak to me most.
Ruthy Procaccia: I start with a rough sketch, followed by a more defined sketch. I then outline my illustration in black and fill in sections of base color. Finally, I add texture, highlights, and small touches to complete the picture. Occasionally, I will skip around, adding base colors to some portions before I’ve finished outlining other portions.
