About the Item
Artist Comments
I was in Philadelphia walking along Walnut Street. I love this street which is famous for its stores and restaurants. Most of the restaurants have sidewalk seating. I usually observe the restaurant staff and marvel at their ability to function well with the noise of the traffic so nearby. I wanted to capture the essence of the place and the concentration of this particular server as he double checked an order.
About the Artist
Onelio Marrero paints city scenes of everyday life. In an impressionistic style he captures the romanticism of New York City, the picturesque fountains in Central Park and the wet city streets after a rainy afternoon. His use of warm tones creates a sense of nostalgia and the feeling that you have visited or seen this particular scene before. Onelio will often paint from direct observation, or he will work from a combination of photographs and combine numerous sources into one piece. In this way his work combines reality with fantasy, creating a new story with each painting. His work captures an appreciation for beauty in all of its greatest forms; nature, art, and people.

Artist Comments
In a subway station, commuters engage in various pastimes as they wait for the train to arrive. One reads a newspaper, another talks on a cell phone, while the rest occupy themselves with their thoughts. Amidst the bustle, mumbled conversations, and rumbling railway noises, the red-haired woman sits with her eyes closed, immersed in a contemplative moment.About the Artist
