Hello, I'm Naava.

I am a painter and illustrator who makes emotional and inspiring art about motherhood and childhood.

This is what I’m sure of: The connection we have with our children is the deepest love story we'll ever know. 

Like so many of you, being a Mommy is an identity I treasure. I think we are brave and heroic and our stories deserve to be told. My art is a reflection of our shared experiences.

Drawing people has been my passion since I was a child.

And because everyone always asks: Naava is a Hebrew name and it means lovely.

“Pretty much obsessed with our new packaging! These illustrations of our Milk Snob Mommies were created by our wonderful friend, Naava.”

MILK SNOB, The Lifestyle Brand For The Modern Parent

Collaborating with Naava was equal parts exciting and inspiring! Not only is her work uplifting, it perfectly resonates with our target audience, which made working together a no-brainer! Naava, herself, was such a pleasure to work with! Flexible, accommodating and on time! I can't wait for our next collaboration!

Our children love to fit themselves into our personal space just when we think we have a moment to ourselves.

This new series of drawings is about letting our children in, and still holding on to what matters to us.
