The Seven Colors of Hope, by Spiros Gratsias, 50 x 70 cm limited edition Art Print based on white on black pen drawing on 140 g paper
"The Seven Colors of Hope" is an evocative black and white ink drawing. The boat cradles seven balloons, representing dreams. Another boat carries a lone figure, symbolizing courage. Six vibrant balloons soar, each color portraying diverse optimism. One balloon adrift, a poignant reminder of enduring hope.
