About The Artwork

"Sweet Skull in Blue" Digital drawing; created in 2018. This digital painting is a unique and original work with a series of digital images I created, with the skull as the central theme. Having as my primary key to the historical identity of Mexican sweet that through the years has become an undisputed signature of their customs, I have chosen as the main element of my design, a Calavera. A representation of a human skull, decorated by hand and made from sugar used for the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead (Dia de Los Muertos), the biggest festivity in Mexico. A traditional and robust symbol of Mexican culture. I used it to link to Mexicans' richness of tradition in their sweets. Traditional sweets in Mexico are extra delicious, made by hand and from nature. My poster has a colorful and robust element, full of sweets, flowers, happy little creatures, the greater lovers of sweets, and a ladder that represents the entrance to the beautiful sweet world of Mexico. "Come and taste the sweetness of Mexico." Chocolate is one of the essential elements in the design as one of Mexico's gifts to the world! Aztecs were the first to consume the cacao bean in drink form, and the sugar cane plant can be found in Mexico's tropical lands that are suitable conditions for its widespread growth. Life is sweet and so is Mexico! / La vida es dulce y también México!

Digital Artist and Surface Pattern Designer ARTIST STATEMENT My art is a form of expression and an extension of my personality. My creative mind never stops, and everything around me is an inspiration for my work, even the most minor and insignificant things in life. I started doing art at a very young age. For me, art becomes a source of search, processing, and ultimately peace with various experiences. Sometimes I draw figures, faces, and things in which I find something profound. I like to capture a moment and put it in a work of art. What I like most about the design are the emotions. I love seeing something shaking in someone's eyes and face, something just below the surface, and I can capture it with my drawing. I want to inspire people with works of art that focus on the resilience, strength, and connection of the human spirit and emotions. After graduating from University, I worked in many Local Design Offices. At the end of 1999, I started focusing on web design. I spent the last 21 years as a web designer and developer at Cyprus's largest Telecommunication Authority Company. Although family and work commitments prevailed, I continued my passion for art in my spare time. I am incredibly compassionate, and in many ways, I put myself wholeheartedly into every work of art. I never focus on specific art styles and themes, as I do not want to be framed in a particular technique and be more faithful to my emotions and imagination. Different media always allow me to express other ideas, and during the research, new areas of interest emerge and lead to my subsequent work. Sometimes I even use themes to satisfy my obsession with colors and imagination. In a way, I communicate with this elusive sense of absolute joy in my art, and every time I feel happy in my life, I create art with colors full of fantastic images and objects. I always find beauty in bad things and try to transfer them to powerful and unique works of art. My work has been constantly rooted in the many personal emotions, moments, and things I have drawn from life for the past ten years. Evolution is my primary goal. It's something I demand of myself and my job. In recent years my works have been created spontaneously. At first, I did not realize it, but in the process, looking at them as a whole, I can say that, indeed, there is an explosion of imagination. I avoid pre-defining the true meaning of the messages I send through my work and letting the viewer travel through my art.
