Drawing from friends, swimmers and passers by, Marko paints moments of togetherness and solitude beneath umbrellas, along the shoreline and within the deep blue ocean.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA block-font-kerning-none block-font-feature-liga-off block-font-feature-clig-off block-font-feature-calt-off direction-ltr align-start\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eFor Marko, the beach is an all consuming environment. The ocean breeze, the heat of the sun and the shifting energy of people moving through the water become starting points for paintings that explore what it means to be immersed in a place. There is a particular calmness to these scenes, balanced by the life and movement that unfold within them.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA block-font-kerning-none block-font-feature-liga-off block-font-feature-clig-off block-font-feature-calt-off direction-ltr align-start\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eWorking between brushwork and thick, expressive applications of paint with a palette knife, Marko continually returns to familiar imagery as a way of discovering new possibilities.
