blog giveaway

I have been blogging for over a year now, and I must tell you it has changed me as a person and as an artist. Even though I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you in person, you have touched my heart, with your kind words, your encouragement and  your support. I have met the most wonderful people through my blog. Thank you for taking the time to connect with me.

I will be giving away this 4x6'' print and a wooden pendant :) just leave a comment. Drawing will be next Saturday.
Have a creative weekend, my friend.

personalized paintings

I have been asked by several stores to create personalized paintings as birth announcements and this is what I came up with :)   I've been having too much fun with this!! and of course, you know who, is included!  little Daisy is holding one of the balloons. I was thinking of having her pop it..but don't know if the mommies ordering the painting would find it funny!
The paintings will be listed on etsy tomorrow morning :)

The Acropolis

Although I have moved here in Athens, seven years ago, I sometimes have to pinched myself that I am actually living here now, and not just visiting my sister during summer vacation!  it's kind of surreal at times. One day I'm in Washington, DC and the next, I'm moving to Greece. and although it hasn't been an easy transition, I have to confess...I'm staying put! I'm in love with Athens! with the people, the neighbourhoods,the weather (although it's snowing!! right as we speak), the sun! oh and the blue blue sky! This sky, that makes me feel so alive and free, that I can accomplish anything!! 

Yesterday I went for a walk in Plaka. It's the oldest neighbourhood in Athens. It's right under the Acropolis and it looks like a village within a city. That's surreal!! Don't let the shabby look fool you. Those tiny houses are worth millions! You can't find real estate under one million euros!

My friend Terry

I received the most exciting email this morning! My friend Terry, whom I haven't seen in many years is coming to visit Athens!!  I met her at one of my exhibitions when I used to live in Wash. D.C. She was one of my biggest fans and would come to all my exhibitions along with her friend Elizabeth. and the three of us just clicked!  we had so many things in common, our love for the arts, music and would meet for lunch and sit for hours talking. When I moved to Greece, we lost touch and now to receive her email is.. well I am just so thrilled and exited!! I can't wait to see her at the end of this month!  so much catching up to do.. I am so super exited!  can't wait to see you my dear Terry :)) xoxoxoxo
