Artist Marcos Antonio & Students

In Marcos Antonio’s new guest speaking forums, The creator to Impressions Of Humanity", shares his personal journey from a child of a hardworking family that emigrated from the Dominican Republic, life of art with big dreams, to that of a successful business owner of his own cosmetic line. Antonio acted as an unofficial ambassador to the Caribbean, the role had undertaken humanitarian missions and represented the interests of institutions and became the director of the Providence Festival of New Latin American Cinema. Marcos Antonio was the the founder of the Anthony Quinn Life Achievement Award in Film and the Arts. Not long after, art and film opportunities came knocking. All appeared great from a distance, but as recent guest speaking engagements, Antonio peels away the glossy facade to share with art students, in intimate detail, how he struggled to achieve balance, both personally and professionally and dedicate himself entirely to his life long passion, painting.
