Contact: ron_karu@yahoo.com Ron Karu was born in Israel where he served in the IDF. He has been living in Los Angeles for the last 35 years, married and father to a wonderful son and daughter. Inspiration for the work The inspiration for the work came to me as I was watching a presentation of a computer generated art show based on geometrical shapes with the Star of David at its core. The artist, Endre Balogh, is a very talented violin player who’s music accompanied the presentation. Somehow I connected this presentation with string art and the rest is history. I have a vague memory of doing some basic string art as a young boy but have not done it since then.
