We're drawn to his paintings because they're beautiful and striking, but we might not initially realize why. Marlin's skill isn't just in depicting a flower or an object or a landscape, but in masterfully capturing the way light defines it. In those ways, the subject of this painting is light itself.

Honor Society, and others. He has won more than 11 Best-in-Show awards and his work has been featured in Cowboys & Indians , Southwest Art , International Artist Magazine , Western Art Collector , and the book 200 Great Painting Ideas.
