Born at Argostoli in 1922. She studied painting with
Costas Parthenis and etching with Yannis Kefallinos at
the School of Fine Arts, Athens (1944 - 1949). She had
her first solo exhibition in Athens (1953). Her work
was exhibited in many solo and group shows in several
Greek cities as well. She illustrated a number of
books, newspapers, magazines and calendars and has
issued albums with her work depicting several regions of
Greece (Cephalonia 1957, Ionian Islands 1966, Argolis
1968, Nauplion 1971, Greek Monasteries 1976 and 1979,
Messinia 1984 and Nauplion 1988). Together with painting
she was engaged in journalism, literature and historical
research and was awarded by the Academy of Athens, the
Ministry of Culture, the "Twelve" a.o. Combining
impressionism with expressionism, she has created a
distinctive personal style in her work where the
limpidity of colours is dominant. She lives and works in
Athens and Kephalonia.
