5 out of 5 starsSeller was very friendly. I received my order within the expected amount of time. The print size for the pack of seven goddesses are slightly larger than the standard 5x7 so just be aware of that when getting frames. I currently have Persephone framed and hope to get the other ones hung up as well. Seller even included a couple little extra gifts with my order! I use the bookmark everyday. Would definitely order from this shop again!

About GreenerPasturesStore
Dive deep and bring back treasures
Hi there!
I am Virginia Diakakis, the artist behind The Greener Pastures.
I am also Sophia's mom, a stage designer, a playwright, the best friend of a crazy dog named Cobra and the slave of an evil cat genius called Mao.
I love life's irony, black humor, strange people and the good old times.
All of my work reflects the state of mind I am when I make it and I feel very connected with each illustration. Artistically my work is highly inspired by Victorian imagery, vitriolic humor, Art Nouveau as well as, tarot cards and anything obscure, dark or quirky that draws my attention.
I use symbols and animals to interpret human nature, together with thoughts transformed into words. All of these conspire in order to depict human and familiar situations through a bitter-sweet filter balancing between childhood innocence and a dark fairy tale. My goal is to provoke, puzzle but also amuse the viewers of my work.
Finally, born and raised in Greece i was always fascinated by the myths and stories of the Greek mythology and Hellenic paganism.
In the Shop you will find a series of illustrations dedicated to my cultural background that features a list of Greek goddesses' portraits along with their symbols, but also mythical monsters like Medusa and illustrations inspired by the Platonic Solids.
Thank you for taking the time to read 'The Greener Pastures' ' little story. I hope you enjoyed it.
Please don't hesitate to contact me for any questions or specifications
Virginia Diakakis was born and raised in Athens, Greece. She studied Graphic and Interior design in Greece, subsequently moved to Italy to study in the Fine Arts Academy of Florence.
