Šalić Petar – Still Life

About the author:He was born in 1974 in Zagreb. He graduated in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb. He is a member of HDLU Zagreb. He has exhibited solo at the gallery of the School of Applied Arts in Zagreb. He received the ALU award upon graduation. His painting language is based on a sense of color and light in color. There are no humans in his paintings, only nature, vast and powerful, with vegetation pulsating strongly in intense greenery and with animals (monkeys, giraffes, birds) bearing human characteristics. In strict, sharply cut fields, everything lives in harmony, with full breath. His painting is direct and sincere, exotic in experience, authentic in expression, focused on color and composition; his motifs are arranged according to these visual elements. He lives and works in Zagreb.
