Vittorio , a friend who lives in Italy asked me to paint for him these bottle trees that grow in my town , Raanana .


I didn’t really  understand his request as I never thought of these trees as anything out of the ordinary. I took them totally for granted . I agreed to paint them.

So I prepared the canvas and as it was drying, I proceeded to go or and photograph these trees. Passers by were looking at me oddly but I continued with my business . As I was shooting them , I was stunned at how beautiful these trees really are. They are curvy with branches sprouting from their tops.

Every bottle tree is unique . No two look alike. Like people , each one is a different work of art.
Curiously, they only grow here in Israel , Turkey and Australia and not too many other places. It seems they have round bottoms so as to store moisture in case Of drought.

I guess the painting I painted for Vittorio is hanging somewhere in Italy.

I painted this painting not long after Vittorio’s.

Since I last painted this painting , I always take second and third looks at every bottle tree that I pass. They certainly are sights to see .

Thank you , Vittorio for opening my eyes.
