This artwork draws inspiration from a serene holiday in Greece, near the sea, and the timeless allure of Ernest Hemingway's famous novel. It captures the charm of Greek coastal life, featuring posters torn from a lamp post along the winding road I followed to reach my favorite beach. The lamp post stood near the village bakery, perched atop a hill, offering the sweet scent of local pastries, refreshing drinks, and a gentle breeze. It was a lovely place to pause before descending the final stretch of road toward the beach—or, even better, after climbing the steep road from the beach on a hot afternoon.
This piece is perfect for those who appreciate the blend of literary elegance and tranquil seaside retreats, embodying the essence of a dream holiday.
