Onli's landmark works were featured in the historic book/anthology called "It's Life As I See It!".  This book showcased the critical inspiring works of several highly valued Chicago Black Cartoonists.  The entire first edition of our Rhythmistic character "NOG: The Nubian of Greatness. Protector of the Pyramides' appears in this uniquely intelligent book. 


Followed by NOG, circa 1980, being featured along with innovative issues of the 1980s classic 'zine, "Future-Funk" in the 2021 blockbuster, group exhibition at the Musuem of Contemporary Art, Chicago, "Chicago Comics: 1960 until Now!"




This awesome ever-cool book and exhibition were the amazing industrious inspired work of curator / writer, Dan Nadel. 

 Plus, the solo retrospective styled exhibition, "RHYTHMISM: Art as Social Change Making" ran for several months at the stately Gordon Parks Arts Hall in the Corvus Gallery on the campus of the prestigious University of Chicago.  Lastly ONLI STUDIOS LLC published its first hyper-dynamic Graphic Novel, "Drawn For The Rhythmic Zone".


In appreciation as gratitude because none of this happens without your positive participation and openly sharing of all things Rhythmistic. 


Be well and Stay Smart!

Soild!
