Tina Thomas aka Tina Giannakopulos giopherdesigns@yahoo.com
Long Description

Following my personal mantra, “Allow your mind to create and your hands will flow” while looking through the beauty of nature, I paint to echo life’s amazing experiences into any form; from realism to the obscure.

What do you see? Do we see the same thing? Now, step away and let your imagination grow. Let what you experience guide you, because what you see may not be what others do.

That’s what abstract art is all about, it opens your mind to a whole new principle. Each feeling, each thought, all unique to you, the imaginary.

– Tina Thomas aka Tina Giannakopulos
