So large that here is the second letter!

Marcelo best-known here, on toonpool, for his refreshing sense of humor and cognoscible cartoon style., maybe the only cartoonist that can move both ears at the same time and one at a time. Still, try to get over the ears gymnastics while reading the entire letter:


Father and son having the first talk about solar protection

1. Which movie/TV character you see yourself as and why?

I do not really know what character seems right but my wife said I’m a mixture of Homer with Bart Simpson, I hope it’s not Homer’s belly.

2. What are your New Year’s resolutions?

300DPI! No, my resolution is always to become a better person and professional, always to look for those new challenges and opportunities.

3. What bores you the most?

Blackout in the middle of the work process and bank queue lines!

4. Do you like your place or would you like to live somewhere else?

I love where I live, I’m here next to Sao Paulo but I have the peace of the countryside to concentrate on my work and have a more calm and healthy life.

Kids, don´t try this at home.

The favourite bar is always full

5. What are you able to do that Superman can’t do?

I can move my ears at the same time and separately.

6. If you were sleep walking one night, where would you probably wake up the next day?

I would wake up at the bar with my other friends, cartoonists sleepwalkers.

7. What would you wear to be kicked out from a black tie cocktail party

A pink tie!

8. Tell me the biggest prank you did on a friend.

I was on a beach with some friends, one night and, after a few bottles of Tequila we laid down and slept on the sand. I remembered I left the ventilation on in the room and I told my friend I would go to turn it off. My friend said to bring him a blanket. I just covered him with a towel and left him there all night.

The Neighborhood. On the other side of the screen, the grass is allways greener

The view out the window gives a certain party mood

9. How to ruin your vacation?

It is very hard to ruin my vacation but if I put myself in a bank queue line with a warm beer on a rainy day that may cause serious consequences.

10. If I gave you a giraffe, where would you hide it?

I would put it in a glass at the bottom and three ice cubes and drink with Whisky.

11. What do you do when you see the glass half empty!

I would turn around for another at the table of someone whose glass is fuller.

The secret working techniques are finally revealed

I know it’s not a traditional caricature that’s why I call it a character drawing. I like how it came out.
