JOVANA KOLIC - featured artwork "David Bowie 3" "Two years ago, I started series of paintings called 'Icons'. It was my homage to great talent and people that changed the world of art, science, music, movie, literature... I painted these portraits inspired, and by using the technique of actual iconography and Byzantine art, in traditional manner - egg tempera on wood, but I also added recognizable pop art coloring. During this time, I painted over fifty 'Icons'. Some of them are Jimi Hendrix, Nikola Tesla, Albert Einstein, Picasso, Hitchcock... In a multitude of great minds and exceptional artists, David Bowie is the one I painted four times, each time with passion and inspiration. I have admired this remarkable man and his creativity since my early childhood. Artist. Musician. Actor. Painter. He will be missed." http://jovanakolic.com/ https://www.facebook.com/jovana.kolic https://www.instagram.com/jovana_kolic/
