I spent my childhood years in Thessaloniki,a beautiful,picturesque water front city in the Northern part of Greece.Having a grandmother who was an artist I grew around paints and brushes and I was often used as a live model for her.Probably that was the reason why I was constantly sketching during all those years.Later in time I moved to Los Angeles U.S.A.I studied interior design at Sheffield School of Interior Design,while at the same time I studied painting at a local workshop.
After spending many years there I returned back to Thessaloniki where I studied painting for about 4 years while at that same time I was guided by two well-known artists in my home town,that was just to get to know their personal tricks and technics.
I decorated many homes,shop windows and furniture exhibitions,I got into property development,I designed homes modern and traditional and after all this I'm into painting which is my second big love after decorating.
For me, expressing myself through art, is a great antidote against routine and the stumbling on life impediments.I'm sure many of you out there would agree with me.
I love good music of many kinds,I love traveling,cooking,swimming,reading (what great pleasure!)sipping wine with friends in front of the fireplace on cold winter nights,collecting shells and sea-washed wood with what I create all sorts of decorative stuff.
And much much more...
