Natan Pernick studied at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, Jerusalem and his work was seen in a group exhibition there in 2008.

The portrait is of Eva, a ceramicist and the mother of a friend. Pernick says he was inspired to paint her ‘by her emphatic and human appearance. I was influenced by her short haircut and style of dress which emphasise a unique attitude that I found interesting.’
