Apostle Paul in Thessaloniki Painting

I am a full time artist ,resident in Greece.Painting,drawing,studying Art is important and part of every day of my life. Born in Albania under the communist regime in 1962.I have not the right to study,descendant of a family of politicians and businessmen.So my life became a battle for the spiritual and intellectual surviving.Nobody who don't have a life experience in this kind of regimes can understand what is the life inside.But we survive.GOD give us the rights that the regime refused to us.In 1988,a french minister of culture,who visited Albania,Chose one of my works to buy.So,I gain the right to dream,with a scholarship to the Florence Art Academy!!!!Now I am a Painter,a Poet and I can learn and write in five languages.After the chute of regime I make studies of painting in Florence,Italy,and after, I came in Greece with my family. For 25 years I have teaching,drawing and watercolors, in diverse schools in Thessaloniki,where I live with my wife and our two children.A lot of exhibitions personal and collectives.In Greece and other countries. And my way in Art and Life was a not easy but wonderful way.With many friends and surprises,with a lot of difficulties and happiness's. A life of ART and Faith.
