Under the lemon tree...

Haroula oil on canvas 60X40cm.jpg

Some years ago, I had a studio somewhere in the city centre of Athens. The amazing thing about this atelier was that it had a small garden with a big lemon tree in the middle. One day ... I asked my friend Haroula, to pose for me, under the lemon tree on a sunny day, so I could "play" with the lights and shades that the leaves created...

Wow i have been trying to find more about this style. You have a new follower. Its like a dream. Do you have a post about the process of this style of painting and what is it called?

I am glad that you like it errymil and thx for following....Well, this style of painting/technique- the fluidity and swirl of lines-is personal. It's the result of years of studying philosophy, writing, and doing many drawings and sketches. You can see more of my work @ my site: www.nikosgyftakis.com :-)

Thank you! Im a painter as well, self taught, but nothing compared to your work. Yours gave me a feeling on being in a surreal dream. Definitely following, hope to see more of your post. And maybe see tour work in person someday!

:-) :-)
