Angelina

You know her. The famous actress. I have a nephew who's lips are similar. When my nephew was a little girl, Angelina was her favorite actress, so I painted this painting as a present to her. My little nephew became a woman. Now she is more beautiful than Angelina!  But she don't knows it... yet!

70x50, Acrylics on canvas (Not available).

Kissing in the sun

30x20 cm canvas on board. Acrylics and oil pastel (Not available). Inspired from a small photo on a magazine. Very fast work and attractive result. It was made to decorate the poster of a painting exhibition some years ago. It belongs to a young woman,  for a while very good friend of mine. I wish the best to her, wherever she is.

Addition (January 2011): Alexandra's visit (the owner of this painting) was a nice surprise to me! She returned for a while to our beautiful island and she didn't forget to meet us for a while. I'm very happy, because some unforgettable things from the past are not just "Dust in the Wind". Sometimes return to remind us the lost paradises of our misery life like promise for the future. Welcome back my lovely friend!

Under the Table.

OK. You know this scene from the famous photo. Anything I like, I try to paint it. For me is just a love action. A game of shapes and colors. A sweet dream when I am awake. Maybe you don't like this painting. For me is a heartbeat, little different from others. A heartbeat kept forever. Not with the help of a camera. Some noble, sacrificed  minutes of a misery life, to a small, different heartbeat. For what are we alive? I am able to answer about myself. Could you? 

Acrylics on canvas (possibly not on wooden frame) about 40x30 cm.

The hottest day of Summer

Acrylics on canvas about 50x40 cm. Some years ago. Vivid colors always impress me. This painting proves it. In the last few weeks painting domains all my free time. After some days you will see my  new works. For now, enjoy some older like this one.

The wave

Acrylics on canvas, about 30x40 cm. Written "2001" on down right corner. I don't have memories for this painting! Like million past and forgotten waves in the sea, this one also gone forever. The only memory remained is this nice picture.

Added August 7, 2010:
This painting found! It was a gift to a very good friend of me. After viewing this post he told me so. Nice!

Greek times...

A classic Greek theme. Greek coffee by the sea, traditional table and chair, the machine of a boat disturbing the silence, the sweet smell of the spring roses... What else needs someone to have a good time? Twenty years ago, I was living in Athens, the Greek capital city. When I arrived in Samos island, where I live till now, I was very upset. I missed the noise, the night life, all my friends... The depression frustrated me only for twelve months. Now, I feel that I am in constant vacations, even if I work harder than in Athens. On a bicycle I climb the mountains, I walk into the nature, I love life and... I don't need to spend money to buy imaginative happiness! The happiness is real and under my skin every time. The only sad is that now, in the island, I really care for the smallness of this wonderful life!

Acrylics on canvas, about 50x35cm, made in summer 2009.

Asian seascape

Another one reproduction here. Very simple and quiet seascape with neutral colors. Ir reminds Greek seascapes. The neutral colors were the reason for painting this one. It was an exercise for tonal accuracy. 40x50 cm, acrylics on canvas.
