Back To Reality-The Daydreamer

Back to the harshness of reality, but the daydream is better. For us creatives it’s a necessity, and no one can convince us that it’s wrong.

Out of Body Experience

The image of the woman captivated me when I saw it in a magazine. She reminded me of myself just wandering through the fields in my mind, imagining. For my artwork I used tissue paper, acrylics a photo of a woman from a magazine and a photocopy of the photograph, and some stencilling.

Her Gaze/Το Βλέμμα Της

Mixed-media painting on canvas by Angela Zafiris

I don’t usually paint portraits it takes a special kind of courage, but I found it in me and here it is. I had fun with this one and I am surprised at how satisfied I am with it. The problem is I am too picky and I notice every little thing that I think is a mistake, but this time I don’t care . Besides no human face is perfect so why should the portrait be perfect?
