Greek arhitecture has not only influenced architects from all over the world,
but has also influenced many greek or non greek artists.
These few examples present 
various types of greek houses which manage to fit
 within the scenery that hosts them.
Using several technics ( such as oil or tempera on canvas )
 these greek artists  have
managed to imprint the feeling of these places onto a paper, with a romantic and cheerful way.
