 As a producer and supplier of quality Rhythmistic Fine Art Prof. Onli understands that Art collecting has a very distinct cachet, one that is exclusive, monied, and largely opaque. Blue-chip art and artists (those with a proven sales record and a reliable history of increased valuation) regularly make headlines with record-setting sales, leaving many to believe the market is accessible only to those with incredible amounts of capital and insider know-how.

In recent decades, art as a form of investment has become mainstream, as a greater understanding of its appreciation of value is more closely studied and understood. In fact, “Big Four” accounting firm Deloitte estimates that by 2026 over $2.7 trillion will be invested in collectible assets, largely comprised of art objects.

The Rhythmistic visual artwors by Prof Turtel Onli provides the opportunity of investing in fine art with the aim of diversifying one’s portfolio through art—specifically art with growth potential without having to spend hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars. 

You negotiate directly with the artist instead of an expensive array of confusing middle-people. No agent. No gallery adding 60% to the artist's asking price.

Letter to the Chicago Artists Coalition News. Circa 2008 
Aaddressing Onli's core passion as an important visual artist.


Onli is a rare find. A proven innovator in the visual arts after graduating twice from the number one art school in the USA.  He earned a BFA in Art Education along with a MAAT in Art Therapy. From the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Few students manage to earn two degrees from this highly selective school. This education provided an astutely rigorous foundation.

 Notable alum from this incredible institution includes the blue-chip likes of Richard Hunt, Jeff Koons, Georgia O'Keefe, and Ed Pascke.  Onli is in great company!

Onli's Rhythmistic character, "NOG The Nubian of Greatness" was featured mural sized as the public face to its 
and as hot collectable merchandise in the Museum Store per the 2021 blockbuster group exhibition at the Musuem of Contemporary Art, Chicago.

Plus, Onli has professionally illustrated for major publishers like Holt, Rinehart & Winston and exhibited to critical acclaim with the likes of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago and the New Musuem of Contemporary Art, New York along with the Chicago Children's Museum and many more.

Who really wants self-taught lawyer or accountant? Or a doctor from a lowly ranked school?

His is narrative-visual-art that does not require an esoteric written statement. Nor are they shameful forgeries, or art that is derivative of overrated under-performing trends. Onli's Rhythmistic Visual Art speaks for itself. 

It speaks to you! Rhythmism, as a Future-Primitif approach to the visual arts, is a term coined and established by Prof. Onli over five decades of rigor, dedication, oversight and experimentation. All while being mindful of long-standing standards of artistic innovation and expansion. 

Primitif, as in primary & foundationally strong. Future, as in being viable over the arch of time and trends.


A review of Onli's Rhythmistic practice in the Chicago Artists Coalition News, Circa 2008.


You can trust your eyes and your visual intellectualism when it comes to the Rhythmistic narrative fine art produced by Onli. 

You know it's great and no one has to tell you. The power and value are actually apparent in each masterpiece in his artistic journey.  Perfectly waiting for you to express your pent-up demand and interest to invest in Rhythmistic Future-Primitif Fine Art. 

A review in 1981 addressing the future value and impact of Onli's Rhythmistic Visual Art. Circa 1981.

"Future" means Onli's works tend to be ahead of their time and transcend notions of styles and eras.  While "Primitif" is about being foundational, primary and fundamentally sound. "Rhythmism" is the emphasis of the use of the design elements of Rhythm and Repetition flowing like liquid music in his dynamic visual compositions. 
"Dancer's Trust": Circa 2014. Oils on 50" X 50" archival linen.


Picasso did not coin the term Cubism. Basquiat did not establish Street-Art.  Even Van Gogh did not coin Impressionism. Prof. Onli has given us Rhythmism!


Onli coined the term Rhythmism and has advocated it 
over his entire career in commercial and fine art practices.
Onli is the whole package.

Although fine art is appreciated and collected for its cultural and aesthetic value, it is also a formidable financial asset—one that has gained tremendous traction over the past decade, with upwards of 85% of wealth managers as of 2022 recommending art as a means for portfolio diversification. 

Art collecting, however, is commonly and falsely thought of as a pastime exclusive to the ultra-wealthy. 


We’ve all seen staggering hammer prices for artworks at major auction houses, or learned of astonishing six- or seven-figure sales at fairs, with the cost leading many (frankly, most) into believing they simply cannot afford or understand how to invest in art. Not true!
