THE WAY I SEE LIGHT
Discover how I look at the colours, reflections and golden hours of Greece
THE PLACES THAT INSPIRE ME
Come with me to one of the places where a painting begins
A GLIMPSE INTO MY PROCESS
I will share some of the secrets behind my way of painting — the things I rarely explain in words.
PAINT BESIDE ME
Not a classroom. Not a demonstration. We simply paint together, following the light.nue working until the painting is complete.
YOUR OWN GREEK STORY
You will create your own painting, guided by what you see and feel
There is a Greece I know beyond the places you find on a map.
It is the Greece of golden light on white stone, turquoise water shimmering between the rocks, the scent of the sea on warm skin, a quiet morning when the sun seems to rise a little slower…
This is the Greece that lives inside my paintings.
And sometimes, I open the door to it.
A private experience with me is not simply a painting lesson. It is an invitation to step into my creative world — to see the places that inspire me, to paint beside me, to feel the Mediterranean light and discover what it awakens in you.
I will share some of my painting secrets, my way of seeing colour and light, and the stories behind the places and paintings that are especially dear to me.
But I don't want to tell you everything.
Some things are better discovered in the moment — with a brush in your hand, the sea somewhere nearby, and the feeling that for a little while, you are part of this beautiful Greek story.
You don't need to be an experienced artist.
You only need curiosity, a little courage, and the desire to see Greece through different eyes.
You will leave not only with a painting.
But I hope you leave with something more —
a memory of light, a new feeling, and a small piece of my Greece carried home with you.
Review
An Unforgettable Painting Experience
I can wholeheartedly recommend painting with Ksenia. I came to Greece hoping to enjoy a few plein-air painting sessions, but I left with so much more than that. Ksenia is not only a talented artist but also a wonderful teacher. She has a rare gift for helping you truly see—light, atmosphere, color, and the beauty hidden in the simplest landscapes. She creates a calm, encouraging environment where you feel comfortable, regardless of your level of experience. During our three sessions, I learned much more than painting techniques. I learned to simplify, to observe, to appreciate nature, and to paint with confidence instead of fear. Her husband, was also incredibly kind and supportive, helping with every detail and capturing beautiful photos and videos that will always remind me of this special experience. These workshops became one of the most meaningful memories of my trip to Greece. I am deeply grateful to Ksenia for her generosity, patience, and the joy she shared with me. If you are looking not only for painting lessons but for an inspiring and unforgettable artistic experience, I recommend Ksenia with all my heart. With heartfelt appreciation and gratitude ,
