"Dreamer of dreams" Fine Art Print

I was born and raised in Athens. I work mainly with oil paint as it is a quite versatile medium that allows me to bring to the canvas qualities as transparency , thickness, luminous colours or muted ,layering wet into wet or wet into dry depending on my needs.
My style is rather impressionistic or meta-impressionistic. As far as the process of making a painting, I usually start an artwork drawing with a charcoal lines and shapes of the theme I want to depict. Most of the times those lines dictate my process but that’s not always the case. As I apply paint onto the canvas different forms start to emerge which may be interesting or not.Most of my paintings are created by a constant process of building up layers of paint, a process of “destroy and rebuild” until random forms take a life of their own and become part of the composition.
Nature and its organic forms, as a point of departure, activate the beauty of this planet inside me and a sense of calm. The meditative state I am in while working is the mood I want to convey. My purpose is to create landscapes enhanced with emotion and dream.
My travels and my outdoor activities are a continual inspiration in my painting journey.
