Emilija Pasagic...Artist
Emilija was born in Belgrade in the former Yugoslavia. In 1993 Emilija and her family moved to Canada and settled in Toronto. Formally educated in landscape architecture, she had always enjoyed drawing and painting, but her new life sparked an artistic rejuvenation.
Always unconventional she began by painting on silk, intensely detailed semi-abstract still lives and figures;
Emilija then went on to explore a variety of media, most recently experimenting with the encaustic method. This is an ancient technique, blending bee's wax and oil paint which can then be applied to paper, board or canvas; careful layering and scratching is then used to add depth and character to the compositions. The delicacy of her images is offset by robust Mediterranean shades of crimson and ochre, bringing a contemporary feel to a traditional technique.
