Orna Bromberg's work has been exhibited in Israel since 1985. Her style is identified with children's drawings: colorful repetitions and images of little girls, crowns and flowers, butterflies, birds, trees, and clowns. Her use of vivid colors and seemingly incongruent placement of them may be seen; for example: red next to orange, and orange next to pink.
