The Greek Island of Serifos part four


Most of the pictures I took were of  doors! I am always fascinated by them. I have a big photo collection of doors from the Greek islands and maybe should have an exhibition of them one day.. just kidding. i just love them.

Serifos has hundreds of churches, most of them tiny, reminds me legos!

Every day after going to the beach, I would head over to this cafe and Art journal :)) it was everything I had dreamed of,  all winter..to be on a Greek island and just play in my journal!  It was the most rewarding holiday.. I came back to my studio full of inspiration and ready to get back to painting.
This is the view from where I sat :)

Another interesting place I found to journal was here. This room belonged to a cafe, it was very artsy with all sorts of paintings and odd household stuff on the walls. this room had no roof! which made even more fascinating! lol

one last picture of a gorgeous sunset..

Thank you for following my trip :) I now have to go catch up on all your blogs to see what I missed.

  3. I've just been enjoying your trip second hand through all your photos and posts! What a wonderful place! I am also one of those people who takes a lot of photos of doors! Last year I went on a work trip to Valencia and everyone was laughing at me!!
    I love both those cafe shots - just imagining you sitting there journalling away!

  6. Dear Joanna,

    Thank you for sharing your time in Serifos with me (us) - it was a delightful pictorial escape and one that has inspired me to put this place on my "must visit" list.

    Your jewellery pieces are whimsical and energetic - truly perfect for seeing the brighter side of life - I think your pieces will sell very well in Serifos.

    Where to next? This travelling vicariously suits me at present as I must wait patiently for my wings to mature before I too can take flight!

    Cheers,
    Jenny

  7. Such wonderful photos Joanna. It is many years since I was in the greek islands and memories flood in. There is nowhere else in the world with the blue/white contrast so startlingly beautiful.
