The Milans credit their success as artists to their faith.
They receive their inspiration by the Spirit of God and feel
called to the creative process. God, they believe, is the source
for their vision they need as artists.
The Milans create their paintings together. Through years of
studying and creating art, they have developed many innovative
techniques, the most significant of which is the ability to
work together. Throughout the process, their pieces are formed
through many layers of paint and even more critiques. The outcomes
are rich compositions layered with whimsical imagery, hints
of narrative and aggressive pleasing colors.
The Milans have had a long love affair with the country of
Greece. In the past, they have set up temporary studios in the
beautiful coastal cities of Kavala and Thessaloniki which have
given them inspiration that is reflected in their artwork and
life. A permanent studio in Greece is a future goal for the
couple.
John and Elli met in Honolulu, Hawaii in high school. They
studied painting from Savannah College of Art and Design and
then moved to Athens Georgia where they received their BFA from
the University if Georgia.
Today the Milans and their four children live in Queen Creek
Arizona. They are internationally collected, with a year round,
prolific, art studio, and are in high demand.
