The Art of Becoming

I create artwork that reveals the myth within the human soul.
Not portraits — talismans.
Not images — transformations.

My work bridges the ancient and the inner,
the seen and the unseen,
the self we know… and the self waiting to awaken.

Origins

I was born under the bright, myth-laden skies of Athens,
a place shaped by philosophers, mystics, and those who refuse to accept reality at face value.

Even as a child, I felt the quiet pull of a destiny I couldn’t yet name:
a current running beneath ordinary life,
whispering that identity is fluid, symbolic, and far more powerful than we are taught to believe.

That whisper never left me.

The Artist’s Path

At twenty, that calling carried me across the ocean to New York City,
where I studied at the School of Visual Arts.
There, between studios and sleepless nights, I forged a hybrid artistic language,
a synthesis of photographic transfer, fine art, mythic symbolism,
and the deeper architecture of consciousness.

But my true apprenticeship happened beyond technique.
It unfolded within the inner chambers of mind, memory, and archetype.

The Revelation

As I explored the more arcane dimensions of the self,
I discovered a truth that reshaped my entire approach to art:

Art does not merely depict the psyche; it transforms it.
It can alter identity.
It can initiate rebirth.
It can serve as a bridge between who we have been…
and who we are meant to become.

From this understanding, my signature work emerged:

✦ Magical Portraits

Talismanic images that mirror the myth of a person’s essence.

A Magical Portrait is a living symbol,
a personal artifact crafted through intuition, archetypal reading, and alchemical process.
It is part oracle, part artwork, part initiation.

I guide each client through a mental/emotional/visual transformation:
seeing, remembering, becoming, and embodying.

My mission is simple:
to create as many Magical Portraits as destiny allows.

If more people could witness the truth of who they are — even for a moment —
miracles would no longer seem miraculous.
They would appear natural.

Today

In recent years, I expanded my offerings to include prints and original works,
ensuring that transformation is not restricted by status or circumstance.
Beauty, after all, is a birthright.

My art lives in private collections, sacred spaces,
and in the homes of those who wish to see themselves through a mythic lens.
