Red Sky in the Morning
About this artwork
Artist Onelio Marrero paints a canoeist greeting the dawn in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. A dramatic sky unfolds, revealing the colors and warmth of a brilliant morning. Remnants of the evening's mist slowly vaporize from the water's surface, giving way to a new day. Onelio's varied brushwork, glazes, and impasto effects engage the viewer's tactile senses.
