DRAWINGS FROM ALL AROUND: THE SKETCHES SERIES: is presenting a miscellaneous selection of working notes and drawings done for layering the colors and shapes of the paintings to be realized. Also memories of art pieces or patterns encountered in Museums, as well as conceptual thoughts about the meaning of my work. They are also drawn during the working process and are traces of my time schedule studio's organization, because silkscreen printing process requires a lot of different stages like cutting the rolls of paper, cutting the ruby films, cleaning and exposing the silkscreen frames, choosing the colors and scheduling the printing, shooting the paintings etc...
