What art has motivated or inspired you the most?

I am inspired from Judaica art. This art belongs to Israel and is related to the culture of Jews. Jewish ceremonial arts, also called Judaica, refer to a range of ritual items used by Jews. Since it is considered to be a praiseworthy way of fulfilling God's commandments to enhance mitzvah, Judaism has a long tradition of commissioning rituals of craftsmen and artists. A brief prayer ceremony of Havdalah, which is normally performed in the building, marks the end of Jewish Shabbat. A sniffing sweet smell of spice or plant is required for part of the ceremony. A branch of a sweet-smelling shrub is common in Jewish communities throughout the Mediterranean. Literary references to the use of a specially made spice box or bowl are found in northern Europe in the twelfth century. Havdalah's oldest surviving spice boxes date from the half of the 16th century. A German example c is found in the Jewish Museum in New York. 1550 was supposed to come from Frankfurt am Main.

I really admire Tehila Art | for Judaica art.

Yes there is a very famous Jewish art known as Contemporary Judaica art. This art belongs to Israel because there mostly Jewish people resides. Judaica art is related to jewish religion only. I know Masha who is a Judaica Artist. For your reference I am adding her websites and some artwork to have a look.  Footnote. [1]  http://mashaart.net/

Israeli Art Origins: 1906-1948 (Part - 1)

The word "Israeli art" is generally referred to as the "Bezalel School of Arts and Crafts" founded in 1906, in the year Boris Schatz, a European-born Jewish sculptor of Eastern Europe, and a fervent Zionist. The "Bezalel" style was conceived as "Jewish" by many scholars; a concept which reflected the traditional zionist concept that viewed Diospora Jews as an inverse vision of the "modern Jews," who lived and prospered in Palestine. In fact, the study was opened for lacking funding in the past, and was then opening again in 1935. after 23 years of life (1906-1929). The Jewish art in Palestine, due to its diasporic and allegedly obsolete ("Jewish") characteristics, was originally seen as irrelevant to the zionist business. Scholars named the common word "academic" as such creative practices of the school "Bezalel." The term is used to describe anything which is not necessarily avant-garde. The faulty use
