Family members say that before starting to walk at 7 months, Marcelo was drawing on the wall of his room. In Elementary School was chosen for large posters and murals for home dates, which showed a peculiar talent for portraying the traits of the heroes.

His ability was enhanced with his first forays into various art workshops, where his role was defined by the study of modeling and live drawing in the human figure.
