Narcissus
JV06 Renowned for his beauty, Narcissus was exceptionally proud. As divine punishment he fell in love with his own reflection in a pool, not realizing it was merely an image, and he wasted away to death, not being able to leave the beauty of his own reflection.
Jon Vlahos was raised and educated in Toronto, Canada, but lives in and is inspired by Greece. Many of his paintings interpret the mythology of ancient Greece. Jon has run his own private art school in Athens.
