Santorini Art Studio was created in 2005, originally located near Chicago, Illinois. It was founded by two passionate artists who wanted to share their joy and passion with the world.

About a decade ago their studio was relocated to the River Arts District in the Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina....and the forests, mountains, and fresh air have been integrated into everything they do. 

You can feel it in their art.

Santorini Art Studio is the creator of theGreat Pyramids of Asheville:

***

A beautiful five-foot tall raku fired Imagine pyramid, focused on John Lennon's great message

"Can You Imagine All the People, Living Life in Peace"

***

An eight-foot-tall raku-fired Obelisque of Time Pyramid that is earthy, four-sided, and majestic.

***

Smaller Dreamweaver Pyramids made of clay, raku-fired, and strapped to a forked branch from the forests of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

​

Santorini Art Studios also has an assortment of paintings and ecaustics depicting: 

***

Large-scale paintings of the endangered species from their trip to Kenya. Elephants...Zebras...Giraffes!!!... and their everyday lives and importance of family.

*All Profits from sales of these paintings are sent to support saving these species from extinction.* 

The grandiose beauty of the mountains and trees and people from the Asheville area is something you will carry forward into your life. Wonderful scenes from Asheville are captured in many mediums, including acrylics and encaustics.

The Santorinis have always supported their art communities--running an art guild, developing new venues for artists to show and sell their art, and helping artists to learn and explore new mediums and techniques. They have helped nonprofits develop raku firing areas in their arts programs, and developed their own raku and saggar and pit firing focus. Stop in at
