Sat 28th August: Moments & Mementos - Christos Tolera



"My pallette has accompanied me through the seemingly endless personal struggles that come with painting and is in itself a historical document as well as a record of its own making. It has been with me for over twenty years. It is lovely to hold, perfectly balanced and fits like a perfectly proportioned lover.
Kamera, 'A monthly magazine, portraying the beauty of the feminine figure,' is something i look at when i'm not painting.
"

Christos Tolera

To see a commentry from the man himself, here is a clip of Christos at the Goodwood Vintage Festival last weekend, shot by Tom Stubbs

  1. Dear Fred, I love Christos. Great quote. Here's a very in depth interview I did with him a little while ago. You might need a couple of cups of tea to get through it.
