    A year of creative exploration: Part 1 Exploring Pattern Design

    /1 Comment

    It’s been a good minute since I last created a blog post or even a newsletter. In the back of my mind there’s the niggling (and self-sabotaging) thought that no one really cares what I might have to say or show in the way of my artwork. But there might be that one person who, like me, enjoys reading about other artists’ processes and getting a glimpse of their daily life and how they work behind the scenes.

    I designed patterns inspired by letters of the Greek alphabet and cured my creative block

    /No Comments

    Happily I completed my personal project to design patterns based on the capital Greek letters!

    My love of the Greek language

    /No Comments

    As a child I loved learning other languages. But whilst I was brought up bilingual I never actually had a single proper lesson or any kind of instruction in Greek whatsoever.

    The 100 day project and a return to blogging.

    /No Comments

    This was going to be my first blog post of 2021. But my previous post took precedence because when I was introduced to Baya Mahedienne’s artwork I was too excited not to write about it immediately! 😊

As I was wondering around Athens yesterday, looking for some fabric for a personal project, I literally swooned when I came across this breathtaking embroidered fabric by costa_este_fabrics 😍😍 A little over budget for me, it is nevertheless a gorgeous fabric that would make a beautiful accent piece in some way ♥️

Here we go! And just in the nick of time! Here is my entry for this year’s golden.coil competition.

So, at last I am posting this! I ordered one of my Lobster Delight patterns to be printed by muze_fabrics and which I then made into placemats. Of course I had to paint a wooden bowl as a prop to match 🤓 🎨Would you buy something like this?

Πρόσφατα ανέτρεξα σε κάποιες δημιουργίες μου και έπεσα πάνω στο βίντεο όπου δείχνω την εξελίξει του ‘Χρυσού Πελεκανου’. Αγαπημένο έργο μου, εμπνευσμένο από τις επισκέψεις μου στην Λίμνη Κερκινη όπου ζει και δουλεύει ο αδελφός μου ως φωτογράφος άγριας φύσης. Ομολογώ πως βούρκωσα ολίγων βλέποντας το για δυο λόγους…πρώτων, μου λείπει πάντα η φύση -η άγρια φύση- και να την παρατηρείς σιωπηλά και με σεβασμό, να την θαυμάζεις και να βρίσκεις μια απερίγραπτη ηρεμία αφήνοντας πίσω σου τις έννοιες και τις σκοτούρες της ζωής στη πόλη, και έπειτα διότι πάει πολύς καιρός που ζωγράφισα και δημιούργησα κάτι σε αυτές τις διαστάσεις και με αυτή την τεχνική. Όπως μπορείτε να δειτε στο σύντομο αυτό βίντεο (μπορείτε να δειτε το full version στο YouTube) η διαδικασία είναι αρκετά χρονοβόρα και με πολλά στάδια μέχρι την ολοκλήρωση του. Τα έργα αυτά είναι συνήθως μεγάλα και βαριά, θέλουν αρκετό χρόνο και για αυτό δεν φτιάχνω τακτικά.
Σε αυτό το έργο ήθελα να απεικονίσω (με κάπως αφηρημένο στυλ με σύμβολα και μοτίβα) την χάρη με την οποία ο ΑΡΓΥΡΟΠΕΛΕΚΑΝΟΣ γλιστράει στο νερό και εμφανίζεται μέσα από την πρωινή ομίχλη, δυναμικός, με βασιλικό ύφος και μια υπέροχη μαγεία. Όσοι έχετε δει αυτό το υπέροχο πλάσμα από κοντά γνωρίζετε τι προσπαθώ με τα φτωχά μου λόγια να περίγραψω…
Η τεχνική περιλαμβάνει την χρήση πυρογραφου πάνω σε ξύλο ‘ντυμενο’ με καμποτο και μια πάστα που περνάω και πάνω στο οποίο μετά δουλεύω με τον πυρογραφο να χαράξω το σχέδιο μου…. 
Όπως ανέφερα και πιο πάνω, μπορείτε να δείτε το πλήρες βίντεο στο YouTube όπως και αλλά βίντεο όπου δείχνω την τεχνική αυτή. Στο προφίλ μου θα βρείτε το σύνδεσμο. 
Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ 🙏🏻

Memory LaneInspired by the fabric design of my favorite dress when I was 11 years old, which I wish we’d kept! All I have is my vivid memory of it plus a couple of photos of me wearing it at what was my 11th birthday party 🧡 and where I also got to dance with my then crush 😂 
How could I possibly forget it!!! Must have been the dress! 😂 
Memory Lane is now a collection of several patterns, a few of which I have included here.
