Trademark Fine Art 'Coffee' Canvas Print by Marietta Cohen - 35x35 Inches Modern Wall Art for Living Room, Bedroom & Office Decor

Some of my earliest memories refer to drawing and painting. I was born and grew up in communist Bulgaria, where no opportunity for individual creative expression was possible. I still clearly remember the thrills of joy and eagerness with which I expected my drawing lessons. At the age of twelve I had already decided to become an artist - not the best choice for those days. Later I graduated high school of fine arts, then studied for a year textile design in Moscow, Russia and the Academy of Fine Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria.After the fall of Communism in Bulgaria my family and I moved to Israel, where I graduated as a Bachelor of Arts in textile design. I have always liked my profession but my heart was in painting. After working for years as textile designer in different parts of the world - Israel, France, Germany and lately San Diego and San Francisco, USA, I now return to my first love - painting.
