Earthy Painting

Discover the Artistic Journey of Constantinos Raftakis: By day, I am an insurance executive; by passion, I am an artist driven by a desire to explore the depths of abstract expression. In May 2020, amid quarantine, I embarked on a transformative creative journey, blending acrylics and abstract moods to craft compelling visual narratives. What began as a collaborative project with Maria to personalize our home quickly evolved into a profound artistic pursuit, revealing a natural talent and vision. My artworks span a diverse range of sizes—from intimate 30x30 pieces to commanding large-scale works measuring 150x100, and monumental canvases up to 240x160—each crafted with meticulous attention to detail and emotional depth. Influenced by the powerful expressions of American Post-War artists and inspired by German masters Gerhard Richter and Anselm Kiefer, my work combines dynamic techniques, layered textures, and vibrant palettes to evoke emotion and provoke thought. I welcome commissions tailored to your space and preferences, offering bespoke sizes and themes to seamlessly integrate into your collection.
