MILAN STEVULAK was born in the small mining town of Hillcrest, Alberta.  From a young age Milan was interested in drawing the scenic surroundings of the Crows Nest Pass area.

Although primarily self taught, Milan has in recent years taken instruction from a number of Canadian Artists such as Kiff Holland, Fred Schafer, David Langevin and participated in Federation of Canadian Artists workshops involving instructors such as Mike Svob, Robert Genn, and Alan Wylie.  Milan is an Active Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists.

Milan works in watercolour and acrylics creating in landscapes, seascapes and still life.

"I am inspired by images which connect with me in an emotional way and I try to create paintings which will elicit an emotional response from the viewer.  My objective is to involve the viewer by evoking memories of a place, a time or a feeling.  I like to use rich bright colours with strong contrasts to create mood and feeling."

Recently retired from the financial services industry and having moved to Salt Spring Island, Milan is now devoting his time to studying and practicing his "art."
