Childrens's Book and Internet Illustrator

I am an Israeli children's book illustrator, and internet illustrator, and do wonderful things. My work has included many things with a Jewish theme in past.

Since the economic situation here right now is so bad, I often try to get work from aboard. I have gotten rejections lately, stating that even though I am "very talented", companies do not want to work with Israelis. I am a working mom with two children to support, and I need any type of illustration work. In the meantime I do volunteer guard duty in my daughters school.

Does anyone need some great illustrations? Ask me and ill supply you with samples!!!!

Below are some links to my artwork on line.

(Interesting note: I was the courtroom sketch artist for Israel TV at the Yigal Amir trial.)

I did the coloring on this award winning site
