As someone who is Jewish I was looking for something with jewish symbolism to fill an empty wall.
My family roots are something that’s most important for me. So i thought maybe a map of Israel or a Star of David - something Jewish, but quiet.
So I ordered an original piece by Albert Levi, an Israeli artist who fought in Gaza as part of a commando unit.
The End Result?
Something way over my expectations.
1.The unique beauty of every painting that makes it stands out
In the past, guests would come in, say "nice" about the pictures on the wall, and move on to the next topic.
Now? Anyone who sees Albert's "Tree of Life - Am Israel Chai" piece suddenly stops, gets closer, and starts asking questions.
"Where did you get this?"
"Was this really painted in Israel?"
"Wait, did the artist actually fight in Gaza?"
My home has become a place where conversations begin - about Israel, about our roots, about what it means to be Jewish today.
The type of conversations that make me proud of being jewish
2. Who is the artist behind these paintings? I investigated, and his story hit me hard
At first, I thought he was just another talented artist. Then I learned his story.
Albert is an Israeli elite commando veteran who picked up a paintbrush to find peace. When war broke out, he stepped right back onto the front lines in Gaza, returning later to his canvas to process the pain, hope, and resilience.
Knowing every brushstroke comes from someone who fought for our people makes this artwork mean a thousand times more to me. This isn’t just art, it’s a soldier’s soul on my wall.
3. Wait, does Albert actually paint each piece himself?
This was my biggest question before ordering. In a world full of mass-produced prints, I wanted to know if I was getting something real.
The answer blew me away. Yes, every single piece is personally hand-painted by Albert.
He pours his own hands, heart, and energy into every canvas, building up thick, vibrant layers of paint you can actually feel. Knowing the hands that created this masterpiece are the exact same hands that fought for Israel makes having it in my home an exceptionally personal experience.
4. He offered a 1-on-1 consultation to tailor the piece to my home
Buying high-end art online can feel intimidating. What if the size is wrong? What if the colors don’t match?
Albert completely removed that anxiety. He offered a personal 1-on-1 consultation to get to know me, understand my space, and customize the design to fit my vision.
We talked about my family, my home’s lighting, and what this piece meant to us. That level of personal care from a world-class artist is something you just don’t find anywhere else.
5. It anchored my home directly to my roots and to Israel
Living abroad, daily life can feel disconnected from where our story began. I wanted our home to feel grounded in who we are.
The moment we hung Albert’s piece, the entire energy of the room shifted. It created an immediate bridge between our living room and Israel.
No matter how loud the outside world gets, every time I walk past this painting, I feel a quiet sense of pride and belonging. It’s not just a decoration it’s our identity brought to life.

What started as a simple choice for the wall became something that made our home feel more like us.
Not louder. Not trendier. Just honest.
