GREEK PLANTS in history, in mythology, in art and in the daily life of human being’s

Greek plants in history , in mythology, in art and in the contemporary life of human beings in Greece

I started with the painting series in 2020.

After a first exhibition of the paintings in the Forum of Botanical Art in Germany I‘m still busy with research work in Greece and will start to continue with new paintings to the issue.

In December 2022 I continued the series and I will work on it to paint in the end 50 different species to find in Greece.
