Onelio Marrero
Spellbound, Oil Painting

2025

About the Item

Artist Comments
Capturing one of his favorite subjects, artist Onelio Marrero portrays a museumgoer immersed in a masterpiece. A venerable gentleman stands riveted before a painting at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Impressionist brushwork and composition highlight the quiet intensity of the moment, creating a style that reflects control and surrender simultaneously.


About the Artist
Artist Onelio Marrero paints impressionist scenes that capture the romanticism of New York City or the soothing quiet of a rippling pond. His work evokes nostalgia and intimacy, giving the viewer a sense of having visited the same places before. “Each play of light, each texture, and each movement of a figure can have a captivating effect on me,” says Onelio. Living in New Jersey, he enjoys the luxury of having his favorite subjects to paint—whether it's the urban surroundings or the abundant nature just a short walk from his home. When he’s not painting, Onelio spends time with his grandchildren and immediate family, cultivates bonsai plants, and reads.
