Simply stated, Now On View celebrates and showcases the artists of Society6 and their work. Get to know them—and then get lost in their gallery.
Who are you and what do you do? My name is Marcelo Romero, I’m Brazilian, 34 years old. I like to make digital and analog abstract compositions, playing with textures and shape.
Current city: São Paulo, Brazil
How did you make these? I usually create my compositions with paper and acrylic paint, experimenting with abstract gestures on a large sheet, and then fragmenting it by forming some elements. I try to create a balance between colors, textures and shapes. It’s like a puzzle–at the beginning I don’t know what the final work will be. I just let myself go until I find the perfect balance that convinces me.
Why did you make these? It’s important for me to work with what I like to feel fulfilled as a person. You can do what you like, transform it into products, bring joy to people and make money from it. I really enjoy all the steps of the creative process. The path between nothing and a finished work is a difficult but very pleasurable adventure. You push yourself to your limit and are always trying to evolve.
What do people typically say about your work? That there’s a bold, positive use of colors and shapes.
