Title
Holiday In Santorini
Artist

Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
I shot several photographs on the day we took a bus from Thira (Santorini) and ventured up the coast to Ola, but many of the photos I made were this hotel perched high on the cliffs above the beautiful Aegean Sea. It was so captivating to leave just the architecture without anyone there, as I often do, for you to imagine which room you would have selected and what table you would be sitting at watching the "sunset in Oia." The sunsets are world renowned as are the many churches you find everywhere. There are two churches in this oil painting now in print.
I am a “realist” painter, not a photo-realistic painter. I regard myself as a self-imposed “Representational Realist.” “I only represent, reality, God makes everything, perfectly real.” “Painting for me is much like writing is to an author, once the Paint is put to the Canvas many more than one, can enjoy viewing the Original and finding a Print.”

If you are choosing paper, for wall art and it is to be framed under glass I recommend what I print on, Watercolor Paper. I also print on Canvas, with the same, clear, results. The other surfaces, like Metal and Acrylic make great choices for areas with high moisture like kitchens and baths too. Hanging any Art in direct sunlight is not recommended.
