A watercolor from my first “book,” In the Garden, filled with illustrations of Newton flowers.When I was 17, my parents "published" my first "book," and my brother Robert invented a printing press we called Cub Books, just for it. Robert and my parents had 2,000 copies printed [and hand-glued in Israel]. It was filled with illustrations of gardens I had made in private watercolor classes. My parents always wonderfully supported my art.
