ZEHAVA POWER

Zehava Power is an artist in Nova Scotia. An archived bio for Power on the Teichert Gallery website states: “Zehava was born and raised in beautiful Israel, as the oldest of five siblings with wonderfully supportive and creative parents. Zehava’s imagination, creativity and talent were nurtured as a way of life.

In her early twenties, after serving in the Israeli Air Force for three years, Zehava participated in a painting class and used professional paint and brushes for the first time. She then enrolled in a graphic design program in a local college. After the first year of the program, she moved with her parents and siblings to Toronto, where she completed her Graphic Design certificate.

Zehava worked as a graphic designer for about ten years. During this time, she got married and had two children. She moved from Ontario to Nova Scotia, and settled in Halifax with her family, staying home to raise her children while continuing to develop her talents as a muralist and painter. 

In 1999, in a desire to be self-employed, Zehava started painting interior murals for businesses and homes. She painted a variety of those across Canada. She also has been involved in teaching art workshops to elementary school children for the last five years, as well as having recently started teaching art to adults.”

Another bio for Power states that she moved to Canada in the “late 1980s”
Power has Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts featuring her art. Her art is also for sale on the website of the 14 Bells Fine Art Gallery in Halifax.
