About the Artist
Ronnit Barzel
Some of my earliest memories are of drawing, discovering the magic of mixing colours, and even loving the scent of art materials. Art and colour have always been part of who I am.
Art With Neshama means Art With Soul — a name that reflects two foundations of my identity: my creativity and my Judaism.
Born in Israel and raised in Melbourne, Australia, I made Aliyah at 22, returning not only to my birthplace but also to the land where my family had lived for seven generations before me.
My journey began with art and graphic design, leading to a career in the world of Advertising, followed by the creation of my own line of hand-painted homewares. Life then took an unexpected turn through the worlds of venture capital and the Israeli Diamond Exchange. Eventually, my Neshama called me back to my essence, inspiring me to combine my love of art with my spiritual identity. This has become my deepest and most fulfilling path and the inspiration behind Art With Neshama.
What began with Hebrew blessings has grown into a vibrant collection of contemporary Judaica and Israeli homeware, inspired by something I’ve always loved: finding original, meaningful gifts for the people we love. My specialty is creating personalised pieces, as well as unique, heartwarming texts that bring colour, meaning and a deeply personal touch to every gift and home or office.
Today, it fills me with joy to see Art With Neshama pieces bringing colour, personality and a little extra Yiddishkeit
(Jewish spirit) into homes around the world.
I hope you find something here that speaks to your Neshama too
