a big thank you to my talented friend Frizz! 🙂
I like the work of the artist Marina Kanavaki in Athens. She’s a blogger, a painter, a designer, a musician (studied in London & Athens). Links to her work: twitter and Marina Kanavaki, wordpress: Her work [painting / design] has appeared in Smith’s Gallery Covent Garden in London, Epohes Gallery & Benaki Museum in Athens and the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art in Thessaloniki. – Also a member of MK-O [Marina Kanavaki & Oannes – duet in music and life], with 4 albums out so far
P.S.:

I just wanted to add that Marina is also a very talented ballerina, black belt karate champion, master cook (specialty: Greek salad with bread cubes on top), horseback rider and rodeo star, juggler, actress (best known for the one-woman show, “Athena & Her Mobile Phone”), mountain climber, pearl diver, jet pilot, skateboard champion, and 4-time winner of the Mt. Olympus Triathlon.
She’s also very modest, so she’ll probably deny some of the above… : )
