Stavros Douzinas was born in 1953 in Athens, Greece, where he still lives today. He studied photography and scene-painting in Athens. His father was a painter and Stavros learned from him how to paint.

On 1971 he meets Jannis Tsarouhis, one of the most prominent painters of his time, and becomes his assistant for two and a half years.

On 1977 Stavros turns his focus towards advertising photography and works with GNOMI F.C.B. under the lead of the art director and painter Giorgos Varkintzis (George Varkintzis).
