Before starting to construct a project first screen it on the wall a picture I've chosen. Then work I adjust an adhesive film (mask), design and I selectively cut the pieces that I want to colorize. In this way, choose the darkest areas of the project and repaint them with airbrush. As the work progresses, using masks and wet brush to keep intact the bright spots of the table. The acrylic paints I use are diluted with water to flow easily into the airbrush. So I reiterate, repaint the selected points in the table, until I have the desired effect

Konstantinos Botas (Pimba) He was born in Giannitsa (Northern Greece) in 1966. He is a self-educated painter, woodcarver, photographer and a member of the Greek Plastic Arts Chamber since September 2002. His first exhibition was held in Giannitsa (ink drawings) at the age of 24. In summer of 1988 he visited for the first time the island of Gavdos (Crete). There, he came across the nickname "˜Pimba', which in the local dialect means "˜over floating'. In The following years, he carved cedar giving their human forms. Since 2005, he painted with airbrush, first with ink on paper and later acrylics on canvas, drawing his themes (nude, landscape, nature) from his pictures. The last years he divert the time between the island of Gavdos (during summertime) and Giannitsa (in winter), where his atelier is located.
