Helen Bar-Lev, New York born, is a well known Israeli artist who has held over eighty exhibitions around the globe over the last thirty years. She is renowned for her delicately unique technique combining pen and brush to achieve a level of detail rarely seen in watercolor paintings.

Helen's poems range in subject matter from the mundane to the mystical many of which describe the beauty of Israel's landscapes and people with clarity which parallels that of her paintings.

Cyclamens and Swords, a collection of poems about the land of Israel by Helen and Johnmichael Simon, profusely illustrated with her paintings and sketches, published by Ibbestson Street Press, 2007, is now available.
