Quoted by Leon Harari, an art critic in Israel “
Elisha’s pictures have a
unique and independent style of their own with so much rhythm. Most of
his images combine both figurative and surrealistic elements, as if they
were taken from a different world, but yet are strikingly realistic and
appealing. When looking at Elisha’s paintings you feel certain warmth
radiating from the different colors. As one gazes, one is lulled by the
lyrical composition of the delicate lines. These colors have an impact
similar to the effect of pastels in the work of the great
impressionists. Elisha expresses his feelings, emotions and personal
experiences through most astonishing paintings, which are revered around
the world and considered extraordinary. The more you gaze at these
paintings, the more you love them, so much so that you cannot help but
be affected by the artist’s romanticism.”
