This is more than art. It is identity.
A reflection of Jewish heritage, resilience, and presence… held through generations of history, prayer, and survival.
These pieces stand as a quiet declaration...
We are still here.
These pieces were created from lived moments… streets, light, texture, history, movement. If one of them stopped you in your tracks on the wall, that’s not random.
You’re in the right place.

FROM THE ARIST
Why I Painted Israel
Israel isn't just a destination for me… it's family. My wife's mother was French-Israeli, and through her, Israel became part of my story. As a Jewish American artist born and raised in Los Angeles, I've always felt a pull toward this land.
Israel stays with you. The light hits differently. The streets carry history. Jerusalem has weight… Tel Aviv has pulse.
These pieces aren't "travel paintings." They're memory… place… energy. If you felt something when you saw them hanging here, that's exactly why I made them.

The Artist Behind the Color
Meet JD Shultz
It's no mystery that JD (Joshua Dimitri) Shultz grew up to be an artist. His parents were both professional artists—sculptor and painter Carole Shultz, and multi-media painter Jack Shultz...well known throughout Southern California in the 70's and 80's.
Along with his artist siblings, Adam and Rachel, the family breathed, worked, and took joy in creating art.
To this day, thousands of people from all over the world have decorated their homes and offices with the work of all five family members.
JD captures the mind, soul, and inner spirit through a body of work best described as "complexity at its most whimsical." His paintings range from dreamlike cityscapes to thought-provoking abstracts and fantasy surrealistic pop.
His innovative use of acrylics painted on the reverse side of Plexiglas produces images that explode off the surface. Each piece treats the mind to a happy but still intense experience of color and design.
"My art isn't meant to blend in. It's meant to wake something up inside you." ~ JD Shultz
