“I feel humble and grateful that I am blessed with this talent for drawing and that I am able to pass on this heavenly gift and touch the hearts of others. I can say with pride that I have finally returned to my roots, when I was a little boy drawing on a classroom table so long ago…once again I am drawing castles in the land of kings and princesses.”

About Eli

Eli’s artistic skills were honed from early days, having spent many of his childhood days with a Russian painter by the name of Meir Appelboim. Meir was a lonely elderly Russian artist who Eli met through his school community activities when he was 15 years old.

Meir’s art work had a huge impact on Eli and he was deeply inspired by him. As time passed Eli’s family adopted him as a grandfather figure and they were close to him until he passed away 20 years later.
 

Thank you's from Eli

“Meir, for all you taught me with so much love. And to my dear Literature high-school teacher Mrs Dvora Silverstone. She was the first person to acknowledge my gift and open her heart to see my talent. I will never forget her belief in me and the sensitivity and patience she had with me. The full story of me as a child in Mrs. Silverstone’s classroom is written in the introduction to my book – ‘Living in History’.”

During Eli’s subsequent 17 year career as a hi-tech entrepreneur, his creativity and artistic skills were always at the core of his work. He was involved in companies that developed multimedia systems combining graphics, animation and visual interfaces. He was able to harness his artistic gift into practical business…just as Mrs Silverstone had helped him do back at school.
 
Eli’s beloved late mother – Joyce was a very talented water colour artist. Her beautiful art creations inspired him all his life. 
“I Love you so much Mum.”

Eli lives with his family in a beautiful little village in the Ashdown Forest of East Sussex. Here he dedicate himself full time to his art. 

During the last 15 years Eli had the privilege to be commissioned to draw more than 1,700 portraits of English houses, and his passion to immortalize old and magnificent houses into art keeps growing by the day. 
His Book ‘Living in History’ is sold worldwide as a hard cover and as an eBook. Eli receives touching letters from artists, history lovers and architectural students from faraway places such as China, Iran, Brazil, New-Zealand and many more.
His YouTube and Udemy channels that have clips and tutorials of ‘How to draw a house’ are viewed worldwide. 
The warm comments he gets are overwhelming.
