Residence, Street Art, and Fire Hydrant, Syros Greece
“A maroon balcony with painted words and a fire hydrant out front. It’s a colorful street, both messy and clean, in a homey way. The other houses point to a distant mountainous hillside. I use my favorite tone of blue for this frame. The Cyclades are breezy, quiet, and a little run-down.”
