Rocky
Acrylic on Canvas • 24″x36″ • Corporate Possession

A piece commissioned by Rolling Rock Beer. Their ad agency spotted my work on the Internet and invited me (along with 4 other American painters) to participate in their “hand painted original” promotion. The assignment was to paint the Rolling Rock bottle using our own, distinctly different, artistic interpretation. The paintings were then reproduced and 35,000 posters of each were distributed to consumers across the country.

“Everybody loves a good anagram,” or so the old saying goes. The rearranged letters of “Todd Marrone” can also spell “Mr. Deodorant”, “Donate Mr. Rod”, “Art or Odd Men” and “Do Modern Art”. Strange coincidence or was I predestined to become a smelly, promiscuous, abstract artist? You be the judge.
