Original version
There’s nothing quite like owning a piece of original art. You can clearly see the ink and brushstrokes and feel the layers of collaged papers and paint all the lumps and bumps that make it real. You can connect directly with the energy that went into making it...
Artist’s quality paints and materials are always used and paintings are given a final coat of transparent UV varnish on completion. This keeps the colours bright and lively. Each original is signed either on the front or the back and comes with a signed and dated certificate of authenticity.

A top quality, archival print on heavyweight textured watercolour paper. Specifically formatted to fit standard size, off-the-shelf frames for a quick and economical framing solution.

Stretched Canvas Print version
A ready to hang, professionally printed and stretched giclée canvas print. All artwork has been specially designed to continue around the edge of the canvas (gallery/museum wrap) except where it didn’t suit the image – in which case the sides of the canvas are white. Most canvases are stretched on 38mm bars, except smaller canvases which are on 19mm bars.

Rolled Canvas Print version
A top quality, rolled canvas print – perfect for stretching or framing yourself. All prints have been specially designed to fit standard size wooden stretcher bars. We allow for full gallery wrap on 38mm stretcher bars: the image continues around the sides for a seamless look, rather than being mirrored which is the usual practice. You can frame it behind glass in a standard size frame or have it professionally stretched onto wooden stretcher bars to create a ready-to-hang canvas. Or, if you fancy a bit of DIY, you can stretch your own! Here’s a suggested frame suppliers in the UK - canvasandstretcherbars.co.uk

SKU ART-ORIG_0175_SKE Category Tag Styles: ,

Sketo is a small original acrylic painting. Utilising the glorious blues and whites that are the signature of the Greek Islands, it features a small Greek coffee cup resting on a blue cafe table. Greek coffee, which is cooked up with water, coffee and sugar in a briki, comes in three basic modes – sketo, metrio and glyko. Sketo is the hardcore version – without sugar!

Created with artist’s quality acrylic paints on 300 gsm watercolour paper, the painting measures 12 x 12cm (4.75 x 4.75″) and comes in a white mount measuring 23 x 23 (9 x 9″).

It was painted as part of a recent series of 100 paintings entitled ‘Inspired by Greece’ in which I explored various Greek themes and mixed-media techniques.

The painting is being sold unframed – the mount supplied fits any standard 23cm square frame.

IKEA make a 23cm square RIBBA frame which fits and is a very economical option.

Sketo looks great hung on it’s own, in a simple white frame.

Another option is to hang it with a couple of other paintings from the same series and show them as a small story group.
