Breathtaking illustrations
that tell a lifetime story

The ArtiSima Project is a collection of 30 handmade drawings and illustrations
created by my mother, Sima, throughout the 1970s, 80s, and 90s.
Each piece holds a lifetime of stories.
They are woven into my DNA as a man, a husband, and a father;
I still remember watching her draw every single stroke when I was a child.
These original works have been professionally scanned and brought to this online gallery.

Each artwork is accompanied by an imaginative description I wrote,
as I tried to get inside my mother's mind to deeply understand what she was creating back then.

Sima passed away in 1996. This project is my tribute to her.
