\"Painting for me is an endless journey of exploration through time, nature and life. I am inspired by nature, man, the sea, the wonderful Greek villages, the beautiful island landscapes with the boats moored in the harbor and the fishermen mending their nets, the fruit on the table, a gift from nature, the man who toils to earn his living in the fields, at sea, in the mountains. \n \nAs a child, I was fascinated by what I saw around me. I wanted to keep forever not only what my eyes saw, but especially what I felt and what they gave birth to - what I saw - in my soul. The taste and smell of fruit, the smell of grass and flowers, the serenity of the sunset and the boat moored in the harbor, the labor of man in the field, the beauty of youth and childlike innocence, the magic of life, people and nature. All this and so much more I try to keep alive in memory and time and with the brush to give them a place in the hearts of people who are moved by seeing them.\"<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
