Elli Milan

John and Elli Milan are young professional artists, currently living in the Phoenix area. They have recently returned from a six-month adventure in Greece, where they expanded their creative boundaries. The couple met in Honolulu Hawaii where they grew up and married in 1995. John and Elli both received portfolio scholarships from Savannah College of Art and Design where they studied for two years and received their B.F.A.'s from the University of Georgia. John Milan paints mainly in oil with a rich fall palate. His landscape subjects are derived from his traveling experience. His landscape style is influenced by the works of Corot and the early California impressionists. Elli Milan has an eclectic range of styles and subjects all bound by a bright rich palette mixed with earth tones. She is attracted to subjects that have a strong light quality. She also incorporates newspapers and paper scraps collected from her travels abroad. Elli's artwork is often a diary of her life's experiences. John and Elli Milan have showed their work in various galleries in Atlanta, Charlotte, Birmingham, New Orleans and many other cities in the Southeast. They have also had many works displayed in the High Point shows in North Carolina, and Art Expo in New York. The couple lives and works in Queen Creek, Arizona. Their daughter, Dimitra is a constant source of motivation and inspiration for them.
