Γεννήθηκε στην Αθήνα το 1938 και σπούδασε στις Σχολές Καλών Τεχνών της Αθήνας και του Παρισιού, όπου εκθέτει τακτικά και όπου κέρδισε φήμη καλή για την υψηλή αξία της ζωγραφικής του. Έργα του βρίσκονται σε περίφημες συλλογές και η τέχνη του (σε τοπία, εσωτερικά και νεκρές φύσεις), χαρακτηρίζεται από τον «ήχο της σιωπής».

Karavouzis's preferred subjects are still lifes and mysterious exteriors and interiors. The structure of his works is clear, spare, and solid. The influence of Morandi's style and of pittura metafisica is selectively apparent in his compositions. The illusion of real space and time is dispensed with and replaced by visual comments on the meaning of past and present, the historical moment, and the presence and absence of simple objects.
