There is a signature look in Tali paintings – the colors, texture, and most especially the circles. Sometimes, there are lines which seem to split the work of art into portions, each contributing towards enhancing the painting as a whole. The artworks exude dynamism and complication. And depending on the colors used, a particular painting can relax or excite, calm or infuriate.

The use of colors, textures, lines, and forms are common in abstract paintings. Apparently, the variations come in the treatment of these elements, and these contribute to the painting’s value as a work of art. Admittedly, Ms. Almog makes optimum use of these in order to convey a message.

But since most of the paintings do not have titles, one is hard-pressed in determining what the message or subject is. Paintings like “Rain” will definitely lead one to look for a semblance of rain (or acid rain) in the artwork, and the “Golden Gate” painting contains an image of the Golden Gate Bridge hence no ambiguity there. But to the untrained eye and not so imaginative, the untitled paintings may be difficult to decipher much less understand.

Untitled painting #46, for instance, may look like a cockfight to some but it can be perceived as something else by others.Or could it be that the elements used are in themselves the subject of the painting, and it is up to the viewer to determine what it is all about depending on his or her physiological and emotional state during the time of viewing? This is common with abstract art. Naturally, this will lead to different interpretations. If that is the intention of Tali Almog in these untitled paintings, then she has succeeded.

The fact that many of these paintings have been sold at a good price is a testament to their artistic worth. After all, hundreds of art lovers are unlikely to be wrong in putting significant value to these works. And among those who patronized her paintings are known Hollywood personalities. Also, the awards bestowed on Ms. Almog further enhance the value of her artistic output.

But are these works of art worth your hard-earned cash? Probably for the ordinary Joe or the plain Jane, these paintings will not be in the top 10 of their wish list. However, art lovers are likely to give serious consideration to these. Those who acquire art for the sake of art, particularly those who enjoy modern paintings, will be elated in owning one of Ms. Almog’s works. Especially for those with a personal collection of modern art, these paintings will be a proud addition.

At the end of the day, the value of a work of art depends on its impact on the viewer. A particular painting may lift up your spirit, which is beneficial during times of sadness and depression. Another may excite you in different ways. The question is which one do you prefer to have? With Ms. Almog’s paintings, you have several options.

And this quality makes her paintings in demand.
