John and Elli Milan have been full time, professional artists since 1998. They are established artists, and are represented by many fine art galleries throughout the U.S. and Europe. They recently returned from a month long visit to Greece with their 4 children. During their stay John and Elli worked with Greek artists helping them with marketing ideas, and taught art classes for various non-profits.
