This new collection of works are inspired by Medieval and Elizabethan illuminations, tapestries, stained glass and carvings. Everything from churches, books, stone and wood carvings were painted and decorated in vibrant colours and I have been inspired by this pallet to create these paintings in an abstract style. To get the depth of colour I wanted I have used oils for the backgrounds as I feel there is no comparison to their translucent quality, the compositions range from glossy and polished to textured ‘almost reptile skin’ in some pieces to add another dimension to this collection.

Biography Ilia Petrovic
(b.
1962)
After leaving Chelsea School of Art in 1995 and running a small successful interior design company, I began to increasingly focus on my first passion; painting. I was born in Newcastle of Serbian/Italian descent but raised in Suffolk. I developed a fascination for colours and textures inspired by cosmology and microcosm, nature, cinematic special effects but mostly inspired by music and lyrics. I work on large canvasses, diptychs and triptychs using acrylic and oils with varnishes and resins to create glossy multi layered flowing images on a matt background. The final effect is a volcanic three dimensional blown glass feel in two dimensions. The intricate images formed can be interpreted in many personal and subjective ways. Whether vibrant or subtle I enjoy experimenting with colours and the way they combine to give the effect I am looking for.
