In November, I won Caricaturist of the Year: The Silver Nosey at the Ohio ISCA convention! I put everything I had into producing a collection of work that met my own requirements, so it was a difficult week. (I won eight awards)
In January, I won Best Overall at the Texas Cripple Convention for my paintings. I am most proud of this one!
I'm currently finishing up a gallery series that I have been working on since last spring.
YOu are an AMAZING artist!!!

Woo hoot!!
ReplyDeleteYay post, they look great all together in a post like that. rat ballon will always be my favorite.
ReplyDeleteFor your next one can you post them one at a time, so it feels like it's new fun for every day?
ReplyDeleteYou are so intimidating, Marlo. Honestly, your drawings make me want to hurl myself off the CN tower. I'll NEVER be as good as you, nobody will!
ReplyDeleteNow I find out you paint, too? FUCK.
You're the greatest caricaturist alive. I'm not even kissing your ass, it's the truth.
the world is happy!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! Anne, I thought of Rat Balloon back in 1944, the war inspired me. Niki: that is a good suggestion. I will try and do that. Jorge, you flatter me so. Dylan, I did not know planets had emotions, you are so deep.

Hi -long time lurker...

ReplyDeletethanks everybody!
ReplyDeleteF'n good news! See ya in the pool.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Marlo.
ReplyDeleteStrange odd and original works.
Well done.
Wonderful work. Very inspirational.
ReplyDeleteI would love to know how and when you will be selling some paintings.
This is your best work EVER! =D
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHA i haven't been here in forever and it was a real treat to see these paintings. do you glaze like a madwoman? the coloring style has a very classical feel. these were pretty funny
ReplyDeleteHey! You finally won the Nosey. It's about time. You deserve it more than anybody. Of course, I'm sure you do your art moreso for the love rather than the awards so I'm sure you couldn't care either way.
ReplyDeleteIt's great seeing your work rendered in painted form. Knowing that any of the visions you put down on canvas could possibly exist in in flesh and blood in our world makes them that much more potent.
Keep up the good work.
Cada vez mejor...
