saint nikolas (2013) Painting by Ilias Lolos

I was born in Arta,Greece in 1977

From a very young age, I started watching and helping my father in his hagiography workshop, and I was initiated into the secrets of the art and philosophy of Byzantine iconography.

After finishing high school, I studied at Law School.

However, the Love for Art and the innate talent, that existed within me, and dominated the whole family was very strong. This led me to follow in both my brothers footsteps since they had studied at the School of Fine Arts. So after my studies, I returned to my hometown and back to the paint brush and started my professional career in hagiography.

After working with my father for 5 years, I created my own workshop in our city, which I innaugurated in September 2010.



Churches with my works, are in Athamanio, Miliana, Driona, Vourgareli, kalovatos, Anemorrahi, and many other places.
