Marko Mavrovich – painting at sea
As a young man, painter Marko Mavrovich had his sights set on the sea. When he worked on ships, he often sketched on the blank backs of nautical charts. Although his desire to create art overtook his desire to captain ships, his love for the open water remains – making it perfectly natural for him to paint while onboard ships during Park West Gallery VIP art cruises.
Marko at times paints inside his stateroom or out on its veranda. Here, he quietly works on a painting of a soldier with a service dog. He intends to donate the finished artwork to charity.

Great Piece Marko
Marco is the coolest guy. We met Marco at a Napa Valley VIP event.He is a real down to earth guy and it was really great being with him during the event.
Hey man!!! Great to see you still at it! We hope to get to see you again some time!
My wife and I have several of his paintings and the man is “awesome”. A superb painter and a great individual in person. Park West should showcase more of his talent.
Love his work one of my first ever paintings
Purchased a Marko original called “California Dreaming”! We love it! Marko is one awesome artist!
We love the paintings by Marko. We have 3 of them. My maiden name and his are similar. I wonder if his family is from the Croation/Adriatic area. My
grandfather’s name was Marko also. I would love to find out about his heritage. Can you help?
We love all the art that we have purchase from ParK West and look forward to purchase more.
Marko is a great artist and person, I was fortunate to have met him in person and saw him at work, what an experience.
I recently had the immense honor and pleasure of meeting Marko on a VIP cruise to Alaska, where he was very prolific during the sailing. He incredibly completed at least 10 beautiful pieces with an Alaskan theme that were available at auction on the last day. Needless to say, they were all greedily acquired by those lucky ones the won the bid as each came up at auction. I want to thank Park West for an incredible experience, and the opportunity to acquire a piece by Marko.
I was lucky enough to be at two VIP events with Marko and look forward to our next VIP Cruise, the last was 2010, together!
