Elazar Weiner's Gallery, Skokie

Green has always been Elazar Weiner's favorite color. As a nature artist, he shows the environmental rewards of maintaining a healthy ecosystem in his art.

Artist Statement:

"God's Torah manifests in my life as True Beauty through nature. Animals and nature encourage playfulness, innocence, boldness, honesty, and the ability to navigate life with eyes wide open; attributes I value in myself and others. I get to go through my day with a sense of adventure fueled by God's love.

Since my youth, birds have been a source of creative spiritual expression. Birds remind me to approach life with a sense of grace. They draw out a desire within me to live life to its fullest.

My work is not just drawings of birds, however. I let nature guide my creativity while giving myself permission to consult my emotions through the process. In my art, you get pieces of my soul infused on the page in the form of a thousand expressions from nature."
