This is a painting of a view from one of the tiny, steep streets around the castle in Chora, Astypalea. We spent almost two weeks on this tiny Dodecanese Greek island in the spring of 2023.

Each day we took the short walk into town to eat, visit a cafe, or explore the castle. The peaceful and welcoming atmosphere was just what we hoped to find during our first post-pandemic travel.
