Marco

ARTIST STATEMENT
Marco moves from painting with acrylics, mixed media and watercolor to sculpture with the ease of a Renaissance artist. His choices of mediums help him describe the subject while using his own frame of mind to guide the “mood” in a work of art.

Marco is continuing his series of sailboats, seascapes and ocean view paintings. “I find the lines of a sailboat an its interaction with the water very exciting. No matter if the boats are moored or racing, I can’t seem to get enough of the images and the joy of painting them. I try to get the audience into the action of the ship, the wind and water rushing by, spraying them with the break of the bow waves. Can you just smell and taste the ocean?”

Marco has an evocative style mixing an abstracted, impressionistic realism with a surreal feeling. He is accomplished in his style in both painting and relief works of art. He still works in sculpture using ceramic, wood, cardboard and metal as his mediums.

Marco is available for commissioned work. It is possible to get a photograph painted in his style into a personalized gift.
