Sada je pravi momenat 2014

Dragan Ilić Di Vogo painted 'Sada je pravi momenat' with oils. I imagine him patiently building up the form of the woman, layer by layer, with careful consideration for light and shadow. You know, it's brave to paint like this, in a way. There's no hiding. The artist's skill is right there on the surface, and you can feel the hours of labor and precision. I can imagine Ilić Di Vogo thinking about Renaissance masters like Botticelli while making this. The texture is so smooth and controlled, and the way he blends the colors to create soft transitions is really beautiful. Notice how the dove almost merges with the woman's body? There is real symbolism at play! There is a kind of timeless conversation happening in painting. We keep revisiting old themes but making them new again, and each artist finds their own way of expressing something essential about what it means to be human.
