Artnova Studio & Galleries was established in 1989 and gave birth to the concept of an exclusive studio for artists to design and create Soft Art Paintings in a new technique developed in Israel by local artists.

In the soft painting technique the artist uses synthetic acrylic fibers in a wide variety of shades (substituting the familiar oil or water based colors which artists use in a standard painting). For the purpose of rendering the image the artist makes shapes using these fibers, pieces of synthetic felt or burlap and colorful acrylic strings of different thicknesses, thus effectively painting with these materials to create their ideas.

The special effects achieved with Soft Paintings are obtained using multi-dimensional harmony which has brought about a breakthrough in the process of creating original art.

Soft Paintings in the Soft Art technique is the world’s only studio dedicated to the creation of Soft Paintings which are created exclusively by Arntova’s talented artists.

Replacing the painter’s brush the artist uses a needle to fasten the materials to the “canvas” which is either synthetic felt or burlap. The artist starts with a single needle and paints his work, using strings instead of the pencil, and fibers instead of colors. When the painting becomes thick with the layers of fiber the artist uses a special punch with a hundred needles to work the fiber in and this allows for complex shading of layer upon layer of fiber where variations in color is achieved through the shading and layering of the different colored fibers. The beauty of this technique is that at any time prior to finalizing their creation the artist can easily remove these fibers and continue working, without any waste of materials.Luxurious and soft, Soft Paintings with their clean lines, vibrant colors and varying textures provide a new concept in contemporary art. The special effects achieved with this unique technique are based in the creative process and the combination of layers of materials; the creation of new shades, transparencies, and forms which can not be achieved in any traditional method of painting. Because these works are all done free hand by the artist each work is an Original.

Artnova is also the only studio that offers its services to artists who want to express their artistic works with reproductions in the exclusive Soft Painting technique.There are almost no restrictions on the size, softness, color and shape of the works that Artnova’s artists can create. The paintings can either be frame ready, stretched on an internal hidden frame or made into tapestries which can be fixed on the wall with Velcro tape.

Soft paintings are a perfect solution for large wall decorations, conclave and concave rounded walls, or for the cover and concealment of electrical cabinets and air conditioning vents. Soft paintings are a unique solution for places where frames are not feasible like entrance lobbies, conference rooms and halls, stairwells, ships, yachts, aircraft, and so on.

In addition to being an artistic solution, Soft Painting is also an excellent acoustic solution. Insulation materials can be integrated into the painting itself and behind the painting making it an ideal solution for large spaces with acoustic problems.

Artnova’s Home Artist, the painter Johanan Herson, has a rich resume with many oil paintings and artworks of various kinds and materials, most recently metal works. Johanan’s Soft Paintings are based on emotion, intuition, sensuality, the combining of colors, shapes, and imagination. Johanan’s Soft Painting style is mostly figurative with a clear tendency to the abstract; very strong and very unique. Artnova has many fine artists who express their ideas in bright, bold, original works, whether they are figurative, abstract, reproductions, or landscapes. Viktoria Taelevsky’s passion is for Flowers, Landscapes and Abstract works; Elena Ympolsky favors the Israeli Folk Dancers, and Jewish Themes. Shai Mendel Shaked and Alycia Dighorka are the newest artists to the Artnova Studio and are creating many new works in the Soft Painting technique.

Artnova’s Main Studio & Gallery is located in Moshav Beit Nakofa, on Route 1 between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem; with additional Galleries in Jerusalem,Tel Aviv-Old Jaffa, and the Caesarea Port, offering you a very wide range of Unique Israeli Art – Original Soft Paintings.

The beauty of this technique is that at any time prior to finalizing their creation the artist can easily remove these fibers and continue working, without any waste of materials.

After the artist completes their work the canvas is backed with an industrial felt and placed in an press with 14,000 needles which completely compresses the work and pushes all of the fibers and materials into the fabric making an endurable and unique piece which is one of a kind.

The special effects achieved with this unique technique are based in the creative process and the combination of layers of materials; the creation of new shades, transparencies, and forms which can not be achieved in any traditional method of painting. Because these works are all done free hand by the artist each work is an Original.
