“ This is kind of William S. Burroughs-inspired, but it’s kind of how I see myself when I’m old, if I get there.” —Marilyn Marilyn in an MTV interview, 2003. While some of his watercolors may be read along the same lines as his music—an extension of his mission to confront and challenge the alienation and stagnation of the status quo American society as it is repressed by the constraints imposed by politics and religion—the beauty found in the line and color of his portrait work have garnered him respect in a new art medium.
