As you walk through Plaka, you will see many shops selling beautifully painted scenes and landscapes of Greece. I have found that most of them are computer imagery rather than the real deal. Then I found my friend Theo, who owns the best little shop to find original paintings! This family business was started by his father in 1960. This little shops extends out across the walkway and is packed with fantastic works by great Greek artists. Theo has photos by renowned photographer George Meis, oils paintings by Douridis, Spanos, Alexandros, and Sofoklis. He also offers original watercolors by G. Papadoperakis and many more great posters and prints tucked inside his colorful shop. His prices range from only 3 Euros for a small print to about 800 Euros for the largest oil painting. There are tons of paintings to look at so you are sure to find something that you can't resist. I know one of them is hanging up in my mother's house in San Diego right now! Tell Theo I said, "Hello!"
