For him, painting is a meaningful window to the world, allowing him to express himself in ways he is ordinarily unable to. As a young boy, Omer objected even to holding a pen in his hand. at the age of 8, he began to secretly draw just for him to see. Only when he felt more confident with himself, he started sharing them with the family. His extraordinary drawing abilities were discovered only at the age of 17, and since then, despite his young age, he has developed a unique artistic style of his own and a personal artistic imprint. His paintings are characterized by their abstraction, daring bold color pallets, and a naive-optimistic perception and view of our world. Omer's artistic work is influenced by the expressionist modern artists such as Amedeo Modigliani, Egon Schiele, Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh and more ... Correspondingly, Omer is inspired by his great fondness for old cartoons and animation. Omer works with various techniques, mainly acrylic paints on canvas, watercolors, mixed media using fabrics. Despite his young age, Omer has already exhibited his painting in many exhibitions with a full spread recognition.

For the past two years, he has been studying sculpture and creating sculptures with a unique and personal statement. As an artist diagnosed on the autism spectrum, canvas, brushes, colors and clay are a whole world, because they allow him to share his world with others.
