george sakelaris artists

George Sakelaris is a Greek-American, born and raised in the beach community of Asbury Park, New Jersey. Surrounded by his mother's paintings and regaled by stories of an accomplished artist relative in Greece, he started drawing at an early age. A yearning for the 'old country' led him continuously to the shores of Santorini, Mykonos, and many other inspiring locales in Greece. The classic architecture, so different from that in America, influenced him deeply. The clean lines of the whitewashed buildings with blue trim, and the awesome backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea has inspired many of his works. His medium of choice is monochrome pencil drawing, allowing your imagination to fill in the vivid colors of the scene.
