Onelio Marrero
Till We Have Faces, Oil Painting

2024

About the Item

Artist Comments
A woman contemplates in front of Rene Magritte's Lovers at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The warm, muted tones of the wall and the soft light give the scene a contemplative atmosphere. Artist Onelio Marrero titled this piece after C.S. Lewis' novels.


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.
