WHAT IS
THIS
PLACE?..
Greetings and welcome to the Falkor studios.
First of all, why the name? You may ask.
“The Falkor studios” came to life simply because my partner Adam and I’s sailboat project is named Falkor.
A beautiful unique design 56 feet cutter rigged ketch fully made of steel,
We have bought her in December 2021 and have been fully rebuilding/refitting her ever since in hope to (very soon) live aboard.
I have been reconsidering the type of Art I create recently as when we move onto the boat, it will start being complicated for me to create the same style of pieces as for my creating process requires a flat immobile horizontal surface and many hours of drying before being able to lift the canvas.
The Falkor studios so came from the thought of becoming more hybrid in my creative process and incorporate other mediums into my portfolio. As I already have photography under my sleeve, I considered going back to those roots that I had put aside for many years in order to focus on my painting. I also miss writing a lot, which I did plenty of in my younger years.
One of my all time dreams has always been to open my very own tiny adorable snug Art gallery/studio space somewhere in a very beautiful and magical place… and I thought… “Why not start with creating the name of the studio that will gather all of those levels together?”
and here we are…

Tourlou!
