Marco Marella lets form and colour blend in such an aesthetic way in his illustrations, that they exude a playful lightness. His style varies greatly, brilliantly expressing Marco’s different artistic facets throughout his portfolio. His client list is accordingly diverse and long, with notable brands like Kodak and Rolex among his clientele, as Marco is simply a master of his craft.
Marco considers himself a self-taught artist but also has formal training. He honed his talent and broadened his horizons at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice and the Chelsea School of Art in London. Speaking of broadening horizons, Marco has never shied away from non-artistic jobs. His career detours ranged from being a ship’s boy to an army officer. How these roles influenced his later works is something only Marco knows.
Today, he works in his studio in Venice, his birthplace, and is among the world’s most renowned illustrators. It seems he has passed on his talent, as his son Vittorio is also a gifted artist. Marco Marella’s works exude charm and warmth, like a gentle summer breeze, making them perfect for your summer ambiance.
