Sharon Agassi was born in Toronto, Canada, and has lived in Israel since 1982, working in many careers, including English teaching, marketing writing and real estate. Her explorations in art began 10 years ago in her sixties, when she first felt the desire to begin sketching. Starting with still life in charcoal, she eventually progressed to watercolor florals, and finally to acrylic and mixed media abstracts, which she creates in her Netanya studio.
