Alexander-portrait (2023) Painting by Chara Orphanakou

Faces, landscapes and bright colors. They inspire me to make a new form in what moves me. I love light and harmony. I want the viewer to feel through my works the calmness, the almost meditative sensation that I experience when I create. I am looking for the softness that brings the raw and the imaginative in the creation of my works. The materials I use such as paper, markers, pencil, ink, acrylics, etc. do not have the primary role in the process of creation. Above all, for me painting is a return to the land of childhood creativity where the materials or the final result were not important, but the enthusiasm in the path of creation, the inspiration and the joy of expression.Painting is probably the most creative process in my life and something I love to work on. For me, each work is a part of me, a contemplative relationship with the world around me and inside me. For each one I have different feelings and I want them to find their place in a space where they will be loved just the same when they leave me.
