I’m Marcela Vásquez, a Chilean-born, New York–based artist who believes every canvas is a story waiting to be felt. Self-taught and inspired by emotion, I paint faces, moments, and memories that reveal the poetry in everyday life. My art is rooted in spontaneity, healing, and connection—an invitation to pause, breathe, and discover beauty in the smallest details.

My paintings aren’t just images—they are experiences, fragments of life imbued with intimacy and warmth.

"Faces that reflect deep emotion—whether a child’s tenderness or an animal’s grandeur—are my favorite themes.”

“New York embraced me as an artist—and inspired three paintings: Brooklyn street, Flatiron, and a tribute to the entire city.”

My art is more than paint on canvas—it is an exploration of emotion, memory, and connection. Each brushstroke is a dialogue between spontaneity and intention, inspired by the tenderness of human expression, the beauty of everyday life, and the serenity I find in meditation and healing practices. I invite you to pause in front of my work, to feel rather than just see, and to discover the quiet poetry that exists in every detail.
