“Shapes of brushes” by Annita A.
A closer look at the essential brush shapes every artist should know — round, square, filbert, and liner — each bringing its own personality to the canvas.
Annita Apostolidou Platis
There are several different types of paint brushes, and more specifically, different shapes.
You have round, square (bright), filbert, and script (line) brushes, some are exclusively for detail work, for edging or for blending.
Different paint brushes are a spice of life and will add a tremendous amount of flavor to all artworks!
"Small advices about Paint Brushes" by Annita A.
Practical advice for artists: how to select, maintain, and master your paint brushes to achieve the perfect effects in oil or acrylic painting.
Annita Apostolidou Platis
When you are working with oil or acrylic and you are trying to find more information about size, shape, material, how to take care of your paintbrushes or how to achieve the desired painting effects.

Feeling very proud and grateful for this opportunity to share artworks that express my emotional and spiritual vision.

“A horse has the capability of giving us escape from reality”
Charcoal and ink artwork by Annita Apostolidou Platis — a study of the horse as a symbol of freedom and transcendence through expressive line and emotion.
Annita Apostolidou Platis
Working with pencils, charcoal, ink, and fine line pens, I sought to capture the horse not merely as an animal, but as a symbol of freedom and transcendence.
Each stroke reflects motion, spirit, and the quiet power of escape — a journey from the tangible into imagination.
Luxembourg Art Prize Participation 2020
Annita Apostolidou Platis participates in the Luxembourg Art Prize with The Princess and the Red Goldfish, a surreal exploration of transformation, renewal, and inner strength.
Annita Apostolidou Platis
My official certificate for my artistic achievements of my participation.
This year I participated with a painting from my series of artworks called “Eternal Lover”.
It is truly a big honor for me to obtain this special Certificate from the Pinacothèque, a private museum located in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
Artwork: The Princess and the Red Goldfish
Collection: Eternal Lover
About the Artwork:
The Princess and the Red Goldfish explores perception, transformation, and renewal through a surreal fairy-tale lens. Blending myth and emotion, the piece traces a symbolic passage from shadow to light — a meditation on resilience, self-discovery, and spiritual rebirth.
Artist’s Note:
“In this piece, I sought to merge the fragility of a princess’s gaze with the mythic symbolism of the goldfish — a creature that swims between illusion and truth. The work reflects my vision of transformation: how vulnerability can be both a prison and a threshold to freedom.”
— Annita Apostolidou Platis
I want to appreciate the President and Founder Hervé Lancelin and the Members of the Jury for showing great respect for me with this Certificate.
Thank you all!

What Is Christmas?
A gentle reflection on Christmas by Annita Apostolidou Platis — a season of memory, renewal, and timeless light.
Annita Apostolidou Platis
Is it nostalgia for the past — or the quiet promise of renewal?
Christmas is both memory and light: the scent of warmth, the echo of laughter, the gentle whisper of hope returning. It reminds us that even in the stillness of winter, something sacred continues to bloom — love, kindness, and the art of giving.
— Annita A.

Artwork: Mystic Guidance from the My Soul Kingdom collection
About the Artwork: Mystic Guidance portrays the cat as a sacred guardian of the unseen realms — a silent observer between worlds. The work explores dualities of existence: light and darkness, movement and stillness, mystery and revelation. Through this piece, the cat becomes both symbol and guide — a keeper of secret wisdom and quiet strength.
— Annita Apostolidou Platis

I usually touch my paintings to feel the energy and find again my inspiration...
Annita Apostolidou Platis reflects on how reconnecting with her own paintings helps her rediscover inspiration and remain true to her creative path.
“I usually touch my paintings to feel the energy and find again my inspiration... there are times that I’m lost.. I always try to remember that I am the artist of my life and I never give my paintbrushes to anyone else” - Annita A.

Always Dream and Believe
An inspirational reflection by Annita Apostolidou Platis on courage, dreams, and the beauty of believing in yourself.
“The heart and mind are the true lens of the camera.”
— Annita A.
Each photograph begins long before the click — it starts in the artist’s heart and mind.
Through the camera, I don’t just capture what I see; I reveal what I feel. Every image becomes a silent dialogue between vision and emotion, where intuition guides the frame and the unseen becomes visible.
