Paintings

Mihailović started painting in the spirit of realism and traditionalism, and shortly thereafter found the language of expressionism, which are later changed in a few style poetics. If he came to the border abstraction, Mihailović had never crossed that the Rubicon of art. Before he was a follower of intense coloristic painting that had a long tradition in Serbian modernism. His artistic gesture is violent, euphoric, fast, explosive, whirling, without any contemplation during operation. His expressive forms are distorted, barely recognizable, bathed in a rich chromatic range. It is often noted in his work distinctive ornaments and details of the Serbian medieval fresco painting.
