Children Along the Seashore
About this artwork
Artist Onelio Marrero paints a group of children blissfully swimming along the beach. He often visits the seashore during the summer months, and this painting bears some of the fruits of his labors in observing the surf. His execution gives evidence of the influence of Sorolla's lighthearted work. The movement and reflections on the water are captured in brilliant light and energetic brushwork that maintains the spontaneity of the subject, says Onelio.
