Today is my birthday, I'm officially 25 years old, and it's also the new year at the same time so I'm writing down my goals and priorities. One of my main wishes this year is to move to the USA to live there part time, between my home in south Israel and the New England area states. I fell in love with Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine on a recent visit, and my beloved also lives there. Additionally, I wish to connect more with the incredible Jewish communities around the USA, sell my works at events and network with music and film professionals as I'm a multi-passionate artist. My goal is always the same in different art mediums, to turn pain into beauty that connects people at a time of much polarization, to create art that brings us all together to enjoy beauty, love and creativity with each other. Coming to the US requires investing around 10K USD for legal fees and flights, and I'm currently struggling to make as much as my current living costs are because I also study at Sapir at the same time of working two creative jobs and struggling with 9 disabilities. I don't want to ever lose my financial independence or let financial difficulties stop me from fulfilling my creative life and small business dreams. It's been a mind blowing year for better and worse, and after so much change I feel like a blank canvas, with lots of professional and life background but also openness to life's possibilities. I couldn't see covi*d coming or the war starting in Israel exactly where my parents and I live. I couldn't expect so much support in my art works nor could I expect the challenges that have come with it. I set goals and am committed to achieve them, but my ability to do so depends on my customers and art supporters. If my art is good enough to love, wear, give or own, then I'll be able to achieve my missions of creative growth, community and fulfilment.
