Branko Marjanovic, "Fish Creek Aspens," nd
acrylic on wrapped canvas, 32" x 60"
Branko Marjanovic lives and works in Calgary, Alberta. Born in Europe in 1960, Branko immigrated to Canada in 1993, settling in Saskatoon. He moved to Calgary in 1999 and was immediately fascinated by the Canadian Rockies whose landscapes he captures in his distinctive style and palette. With a background in engineering and geology, Marjanovic's images are vivid and compelling.
He explains, "painting is not work to me - it is something I become absorbed in. I am fascinated by the effect of the light and shade found in nature. Although I take photographs and sketches of the subject matter I paint, I do not allow them to control me. Art should not be a copy of a photographic image but the mood and impression of the subject. In this regard, I prefer a good pencil sketch as I find that it captures the basic elements and provides better composition than a photograph."
