Carlo Daleo (b. 1961, Queens) has lived in Brooklyn since 1964. Daleo has been attending LAND since its inception in 2005, where he is able to hone his skills as a talented draftsman, painter, writer, animator, and voiceover artist. Daleo was inspired to start making art at the age of five following two pop culture tragedies: the unfortunate car accident injuring Jan Berry, and the death of Walt Disney. Daleo decided he wanted to continue the legacy of Disney and other cartoonists like Hanna-Barbera and DePatie-Freleng, which can be seen in his "story board" drawings that present a singular moment from one of his many ongoing narratives. Daleo’s interests and aesthetic influences are incredibly diverse, including Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Soupy Sales, New York City cultural institutions, newscasters, and local librarians.

Daleo has exhibited his work widely in New York.
