About Me

“My painting...obsesses and torments me. I don’t know which way I’m going. One day I think I’m at work on a masterpiece, then it turns into a nothing. I fight, I fight on without making any headway. I believe I am seeking the impossible, but I’m filled with confidence.”

Monet, 1888

I woke one morning 16 years ago with a peculating desire buried deep down in my Soul to paint. My memory sparked and remembered as a child I loved to draw, to be creative, to realise and express with my energy my feelings. This was not encouraged and soon learnt to bury it deep inside me.

Well, now it has awakened again. I painted, day and through the night. Now I feel it’s a process for me to resolve my feelings, to release the contraction of my ego. 

To transcended and communicate. 

An expression from me Haralabi (yes my birthname) to the world. 
I judge my ART not if its good or not. I assess it by how it makes me feel when I sit and just “be with it”. Allow it to be with me and me with it.

 

Of the many paintings thus far, some I have sold, some I have given as gifts and some I still hold for sale.

 

Along my journey, I have been blessed to be coached occasionally. To be directed and inspired. My deepest thanks to my wonderful friend Richard Newton and my soul buddy Sara Catena. A deepest thanks to my dearest friend Jane Jordan.

 

I have read/gazed at books on the French Impressionist, attended galleries, particularly love Degas Exhibition in Melbourne.

​

I am influenced by Image Art of Adi Da Samraj and have had the book  The World as Light by Mei Ling beside me on my couch for many years.

Art evolves, I evolve. As we all do. From Haralabi, to Harry, to H 

I sign my paintings as H! 

​

H-Art evolved from there and then registered the domain name.
