Obsessed with the magic of painting, as well as the illusion of reality, Jovica Petrovic strongly
opposes the life that this profession is pulling him into. Therefore, like most autodidacts,
compelled to prove his work, or to show how and in what way he masters the basic elements of
painting skills. This has led him to opt for a classic painting procedure, which basic typological
features are the closest to the poetics of hyperrealism. In this way, he can best demonstrate his
mastery in processing the matter in its pictorial representation, tactile and coloristic values,
those being the challenges to which every good painter should prove himself. The results he
has already achieved, guarantee that Jovica Petrovic is on the right track.

Opsednut čarima slikarstva, kao iluzije stvarnosti, Jovica Petrović se snažno opire životu koji ga profesijom vuče na drugu stranu. Stoga je, poput većine autodidakta, prosto primoran da se dokazuje na delu, odnosno da pokaže kako i koliko sigurno vlada osnovnim elementima slikarske veštine.To ga je, naravno, opredelilo za jedan klasičan slikarski postupak, čije su osnovne tipološke odlike najbliže poetici hiperrealizma.Jer, na taj način najbolje može da demonstrira svoje majstorstvo u obradi materije, u predstavljanju njenih pikturalnih, taktilnih i kolorističkih vrednosti, kao izazova na kojima svaki dobar slikar mora da se dokaže.Rezultati koje je pri tome već ostvario, jemče da se Jovica Petrović nalazi na dobrom putu.
