Mithymna, or Molyvos as it is more commonly known, is the principal town on the Greek island of Lesvos. It is one of my favourite locations because of it's unique character, it's history, it's people, it's climate, it's natural landscape, it's culture, food, drink and hospitality. When I need somewhere to think, to draw, to lose myself, to re-charge .... Mithymna is where I need to be. These paintings are memories of being there, informed and reinforced by the writings of ancent Greek story tellers such as Longus and Argyris Eftaliotis.
