DIMITRA PAPAGEORGIOU
Oil paintings
ABOUT THE ARTIST: I am a self-taught artist living
in Thessaloniki, Greece. My true passion has always
been painting and creating. Mostly, I paint original oil
and acrylic paintings on stretched canvas and on old
wood pieces or driftwood. I work with mixed technique
using palette knives and brushes.
Our visible world, the natural landscape, the endless
blue of the sea, the summer breeze, the blinding
reflections, the waves crashing on the sea shore.
The ruby-red freshly blooming rose, the silver-green
leaves of the olive trees shining in the moonlight. From
all these miracles occurring around us daily, I get
energy and inspiration. Vision captures the image,
landscape, human, objects, shadow, light, colors. With
my imagination I can see my object more freely and
looking for a different form that reflects and expresses
my own perception. I create a new image influenced
from my personal experience, my character and the
mood of the moment.
Through my artworks, I seek to express my inner need
to transform a personal experience and thereby to
set me free from it. Ally with my unbridled imagination,
juggling between
reality and dream,
completely engrossed in my paintings. In
any project, big or small, important or
insignificant I give all my energy.
