Hello! I'm a Artist/Writer/Photographer who lives in Athens, Greece. I have many creative ways from writing, photography, collage art, mixed-media art and poetry. I love sharing my work with people from all over the world through my blog.

Redemption/Λυτρωση

Collage on paper by Angela Zafiris

Unseen forces

and foes alike

tried to cut you down

dark feathers in the wind

you fought

in this world of

negative faces

and negative places

they say you have to fight

your battles alone

but they were wrong

we are not alone

an invisible hand

like a lightening bolt

reaches for you through the clouds

you were chosen

Most virtuous

and noble of all

worthy of redemption.

The Bride/Η Νύφη

I am not an aspiring wedding photographer, but how can anyone with a camera on the street resist taking this photo? I think it’s very cute and it’s not something you see often on the streets of Athens.

Δεν είμαι ένας επίδοξος φωτογράφος γάμου, αλλά πώς μπορεί κάποιος με μια φωτογραφική μηχανή στο δρόμο να αντισταθεί τη λήψη αυτής της φωτογραφίας; Νομίζω ότι είναι πολύ χαριτωμένο και δεν είναι κάτι που βλέπετε συχνά στους δρόμους της Αθήνας.

Retro Festival

The ‘Retro Festival’ in Athens’ Gazi area is for the nostalgic people who yearn for the good old times. A place where you can spot some of your old furniture from your childhood home and cars you’ve probably never have driven in. It’s a place where hipsters and old people collide; and a few minutes in you start to feel regretful for throwing away old 70′ and 80’s items that are now considered cool.
