Description

Marko Mavrovich (b, 1960)
#23853-HAR3A

Marko Mavrovich, a California-raised painter of Croatian descent, vividly captures the essence of the sea in his art.

His tranquil paintings of seascapes and light colors are a result of growing up near the Pacific Ocean and the Adriatic Sea. Practical and resourceful, Mavrovich draws from what he knows—the seascape of the world.

Mavrovich’s art has been exhibited around the globe.

Marko Mavrovich is among the family of Park West Gallery artists who were in the military prior to becoming an artist, and strives to let soldiers know their service is appreciated. Mavrovich served in the Navy while living in Yugoslavia, often sketching in his downtime. He recalls being surprised at how fascinated his shipmates were with his craft.

“I remember at night guys would gather in my cabin…and everybody calmed down and watched me draw,” Mavrovich says. “It’s a healing thing.”

Mavrovich later moved back to California, where he worked as a diver until an accident involving a propeller almost sliced off his arm. He took it as a sign and decided to pursue his passion for art. Since then, he has never forgotten the effect his art could have on others.

Mavrovich has used his art to support military organizations such as the SEAL Legacy Foundation, the Kentucky Pro Bass Warriors, the Hero Dog Awards, and the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington, D.C.

“It’s a constant mission for me to raise as much money as I can with my art,” Mavrovich says.
