I was born in Athens, Greece. My consistent touch with nature and mountains, especially in my early years, played a critical role to the attraction to art in varius forms and the devotion to this great way of expressing inner visions and truths.
Illustration
I cannot recall a period in my life that I didn't draw or paint. I studied graphic arts in intergraphics college and spent 2 years attending private lessons in illustration and visual communication with a magnificent artist and teacher, Antonis Papantoniou.
In 2007 I worked as a 2d artist, 3d modeler and sound designer for a game project's demo.
Currently I am working as a freelancer illustrator and 3d modeller.
Music
I believe that music is maybe the only art which does not demand any conscious mental procedure from the reciever, because any creature on earth can feel it on its whole; it is the language of the soul.
As with painting, I play and compose music since I was a child. I've attended lessons with various teachers. Mostl theoritical lessons' instructors, including composing and orchestration, were Alexis Mavromatis and Nikita Kaminski.
My main and favourite instrument is the piano, but I also have basic knowledge of varius instruments, like guitar, other ethnic stringed instruments, percussion etc.
