Christos’ latest series, consisting of some fascinating new paintings, marks a hallmark of his Post Modern period. “Mixed-Media” expose the brilliant glowing qualities of contemporary medium as he manages to give the colors a vibrant intensity and live that resembles the powerfulness of classic paintings. Those paintings, together with his stunning oils, watercolors and mixed media of previous years become Christos’ remarkable ”More real than what they are”!
