about the artist

It’s exciting to find new methods that help me create the unexpected. I may work with the unfamiliar and as the artwork evolves my impressions, sentiments, and feelings emerge spontaneously. I paint, use lots of layers, texture, and incorporate additional forms and materials that inspire me. I want the viewer to touch my work. Feel the layers, texture, look at it closely and enjoy the experience. I'm that person at a museum who has to hold back from touching the artwork and putting my nose directly on it. I would like the viewer to have their own interpretation of what they see; appeal to someone who doesn't necessarily have an extensive knowledge of art.  

 "Art is my cathartic outlet for life’s journey"



Roni Murillo is an award-winning artist based in New York with an extensive background in fine art, graphic design and illustration. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Syracuse University and continued to study at the Art Students League in NYC. Her work is featured in many galleries, private collections and publications throughout the United States, Central and South America. In addition to her love for fine art, Ms. Murillo designs effective event posters, marketing materials, and original illustrations.

Often these graphics take on the same energy, color, and intense imagery as the styles that are found in her paintings.


While recovering from surgery to reattach her retina with no sight in her right eye, Roni considered how to embrace her art and turn this disability into a positive. This lack of full sight affected the content and style of her art. Her mind started to work in a different way. She drew on the distorted images and fused coloration she perceived. She calls this body of work the "One Eye Series". This experience was truly liberating, very different from the large figurative canvases done in the past.  Her work that came from this difficult setback continues to fuel her artistic development.
