About the Item
Artist Comments
I often paddle my kayak on the Rockaway River near my house in NJ. The river is quiet and peaceful having a lazy current most of the time. For my outbound journey I usually paddle eastward following the river downstream. This way I can enjoy the beauty of its banks. Needless to say, I was struck by the way the autumn leaves created an explosion of color that reflects on the water like an antiphonal song.
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.

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
