I’m always delighted when I receive emails from artists who want to introduce me to their work. But Phresha’s vibrant paintings are a true eye candy I had to share. Fresh, bold, seductive, her female characters seem to draw you in with their dark – sometimes surreal charm.

Kostas Rossidis I’ve known for a long time now. Haven’t yet met in person but started talking through MySpace and managed to keep in touch since. I don’t think I’m capable of selecting the right words in order to describe his talent and artwork - not to mention his witty & cool personality.
