MARINA SYNTELIS  FINE ART

Hidden figures often appear in my seascape paintings: faces, silhouettes, even mermaids emerging from waves and clouds. In this post, I share stories of how these forms were discovered and why I’ve learned to embrace their mystery.

Why I never varnish my paintings? Because I see them as living creations rather than objects to be sealed away. In this post, I share my living painting philosophy and oil painting techniques, exploring how texture, layers, and time keep each work breathing, evolving, and telling its own story.
