Hi, 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.

What is Motherhood Art about?

...The bond we share with our children that feels like home.

...The way we hold, protect and shelter each other.

...The shapes we naturally fall into, limb over limb.

...Moments with our children that may have never been photographed.

This is motherhood, a love story.
