ABOUT LAZAR




Painting for me is the gateway to the magical world of colours, alive, bright, warm. Each new work to me is a new door to these colours.

I rejoice at them and I want others to enjoy them with me.

Lazar has an unspoken talent for art and as he matures his art matures, broadens, and changes. Painting for Lazar is the gateway to the magical world of colours, alive, bright, and warm. With each new work is a new door to these colours, he rejoices at them and wants others to share the same experience.

He gathers his inspiration from his daily life, his home in multiple cities (Mexico, Vancouver, and Whistler) and his global travels (Israel, Russia, Lithuania).

I deeply believe that all people understand art. Everyone has an opinion to like or not like the painting that they observe. Many will try to imagine how these particular works will suite the atmosphere or their living space.


As a former Opera singer and Musician in the Soviet Union, Lazar had a love for the finer arts from the very beginning. However, he did not touch a single brush until retirement in Mexico.

In 2011, I found in a store a very nice, portable Italian crafted easel. Inside, it had a set of paint and a few brushes, as well as a small canvas. I couldn’t stop thinking about it and so I bought it. At the time, I couldn’t say why I did it, but I was very happy to have it. At age of 72, in one of very quiet, sunny, early morning, I opened it, put a small canvas on it and painted my first ever landscape painting.

In 2013, in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico, I walked into the art studio of a very young artist from Belgium, living in Mexico. I was very intrigued by his giant canvases and the bright, fresh colours of his art. I only walked in to see his works but ended up talking with the artist for 3 or 4 hours, about everything: art, life, our home countries, and our life stories. We never felt the difference in our age. His incredible smiling eyes, full of passion and love to what he does make a strong impression on me.

After our conversation, he invited me to come the next day. When I arrived he told me that he had prepared a place for me in his studio, an easel with a canvas on it, brushes, paint and offered to try to paint anything I wish. This day absolutely changed my life and my attitude towards painting. It turned a new page for me and gave me a new passion for life. And life gave me an incredible present, - a new and dear friend!
