PAINTING PROCESS
I bring the forgotten into our current life. I am passionate about exploring our past in order to bring it into our present moments in everyday life.
My responsibility as an artist is to create art that brings the public closer to the moments and stories of our lives so that they are not forgotten. The world moves as quickly as we do. That’s why, I take a pause and paint all of those moments in my work, so that we don’t lose our history.
Art is important to me. It is my purpose. It gave me a home and a special way for me to express myself and tell the stories of our world. It gave me a voice and a platform to inspire, bring joy, and add creativity to the world.
Many corporations have commissioned him: CBS, TV network (executive offices), JP Morgan, Yale New Haven Hospital, a variety of murals for a public company, and numerous private collectors have purchased Morico’s paintings world-wide. Galleries from Boston to the U.K. show his work.
