Year: 2026

My fourth painting from the island of Serifos, where I spent a month during the off-season to soak in the beauty and create art.

October on the island of Serifos was very intense, amidst fierce thunderstorms, there were also hot, sunny days. This piece was created on a warm, sun drenched day on the roof of my house, when I felt like swapping the color blue for a passionate red. And why not?

Serifos is a ruggedly beautiful island in the Cyclades, located in the Aegean Sea, featuring rocky coastlines, golden beaches, and crystal-clear blue waters. 
I spent an entire month on Serifos, living in the whitewashed old town of Chora. Built atop a hill on a rocky outcrop, it resembles a fortress, a design born from the need to defend against pirate attacks in times past. 
It is one of the most beautiful towns in the Cyclades,  there are no roads, only stairways winding up and down. A single day is not enough to discover and wander through all the town’s lovely labyrinths, admire the churches with their blue domes, or take in the breathtaking panoramic views of the distant blue Aegean Sea as seen from high above.
