The last "Nymphs" photo

"Nymphs" was a photographic project created especially for the exhibitions of Cocun Urban Art. This one is probably the last photo from the "Nymphs" project.

This project is going to be finished soon, probably by designing a limited edition book with texts and photos. This picture is a little bit different than the others. It' s the view of my good friend's village house, digitally altered.

treasure hunting #2 (the awarded poster)

This is the illustration theme of the last year's annual Treasure Hunting poster.

The last Friday (13th of Fabruary) It was the 20th anniversary of the Treasure Hunting Game. During the 20 years of the game, many well known cartoonists from Greece have designed several great posters for the game. This year, there was a voting for the best poster and I am happy that this one (in the picture) I have designed was awarded as the best Treasure Hunting Poster ever.

The celebration night, when they gave the awards, I was out of town and I didnt manage to be there. Anyway, I fell honored. They told me that the celebration night was cool, real fun...
I guess I don't need an Oscar any more...!

treasure hunting

Last weekend, I was hunting for a lost treasure in the streets of Rethymno. The "Lost Treasure" is a historical adventure game that takes place once a year in the city of Rethymno. The participants-treasure hunters are more than 5000 people.
The team that organizes the game this year (Mpoumpounes) told me to create the official poster. It is the second time I design a poster for this purpose. The first time was 1 year ago (see next post).
So... I decided to "deconstruct" one of the city monuments, the venetian "Rimondi" fountain.

I have also created a CD cover for the original treasure hunting soundtrack, composed by Antonis Zaharakis.

On Friday, I had a pleasent surprise related to last year's treasure hunting game (See the next post)...

The hunting was great fun. My team finally was 13th in the ranking (out of 45 teams). Not bad at all. Next year I hope for even better ranking, the trophy will be ours ;)
