Stass Paraskos ((ギリシア語:Στας Παράσκος); 17 March 1933 – 4 March 2014) was an artist from Cyprus, although much of his life was spent teaching and working in England. ==Early life== Paraskos was born in Anaphotia, a village near the city of Larnaca, Cyprus in 1933, the second of six sons of a shepherd farmer. He went to England in 1953 and became a cook in his brother's restaurant in the city of Leeds. This was a popular haunt of the local art students who encouraged Paraskos to enrol for classes at Leeds College of Art (later Leeds Metropolitan University). Despite not having the usual entry qualifications, Paraskos was spotted by the college's inspirational Head of Fine Art, Harry Thubron, who made certain Paraskos was accepted.〔David Haste, Obituary to Stass Paraskos, in ''The Guardian'' (UK newspaper) online, 28 March 2014, http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2014/mar/28/stass-paraskos〕 There he became close friends with artists such as Dennis Creffield, Terry Frost and Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, with Frost and Barns-Graham persuading Paraskos to move to St Ives in Cornwall in 1959. In St Ives Paraskos shared a studio with Barns-Graham until he returned to Leeds in 1961 and began teaching at Leeds College of Art.〔Norbert Lynton, ''Stass Paraskos'' (Mitcham: Orage Press, 2003) 7f〕
