Digital Artist & Storyteller
From a grandmother's sketchbook to a global audience.
I first picked up a pencil alongside my grandmother, drawing together long before I could write. Art was a quiet companion through childhood — then paused almost entirely through high school and mandatory military service in Cyprus.
Moving to Greece at twenty to study Civil Engineering was meant to be the end of that pause. Instead it was the beginning. I rediscovered drawing not as a hobby but as the thing I was supposed to be doing — and began the long work of catching up to that realization, one fundamental at a time.
I rediscovered drawing not as a hobby but as the thing I was supposed to be doing.
For years I drew and shared online without seeing real progress. The turning point came when I committed to learning fundamentals properly — composition, colour, light, mood — and built a structured creative process I could return to piece after piece.
Where the work happens.
The goal is practical, clear, focused work — and helping others skip the confusion and the unnecessary parts.
Artemis, after Zeus.
An original manhwa following the goddess Artemis in the world left behind by Zeus's death — grief, inheritance, and the pressure to carry mythology forward.
