Paraskevi Kapitali

A Greek born artist based presently in London, is an ardent observer of the incidental and transitory characteristics - mainly - of the people among the society, at the same time attached to the impact of their inner selves. Attempting to ascribe, by alternative means and ways, the interrelated attributes, influences and consequences that constantly stem from the cycle of life.

I got some experience about the use of technology and mixed media (ex Photoshop), so vital and connected with the digital era we are experiencing. By attending school courses as '' Sketcher - Graphic Artist '' including Graphic design, Free Drawing, Animation, Cartoon-ism, Illustration. But the real magic of fine art, the traditional fun and the joy was revealed to me next to my dear teacher Christos Papadakis, student of the great painter Yannis Tsarouchis and the outstanding colourist Panayiotis Tetsis as well (known as the ''generation of 1930'' movement in Greece). Learning next to him enriched my point of view and enhanced my personality. Gratitude and acknowledgement for his authenticity and the substantial period of my art practice, these 3 years of private lessons and inspiration by his democratic guidance and freedom of painting expressing your deeper self. I was influenced and re-born in that workshop! Ever since the utter goal is: the image to balance with the concept.

A couple of exhibitions followed while in Greece, Athens, Municipal Art Gallery 'Sofia Laskaridou' Kallithea..
