His work is exhibited extensively, and his cartoons appear in The New Yorker, The New York Times, Reader's Digest, The Wall Street Journal, Mad, Nickelodeon, Inx, Barron's and in British publications such as Private Eye, Oldie, The Spectator, Prospect, as well as many others worldwide. Feggo by Marissa Acocella Marchetto "Felipe's work is not only good humored but good hearted and guaranteed to lift your spirits!" -Gahan Wilson "Felipe's cartoon art is absolutely unique and among the most creative I have seen anywhwere. The humor in his drawings is most often conveyed without falling back on the crutch of words or captions. I envy him that ability, because, as a cartoonist myself, I know that he has chosen the most difficult path in this art form and has triumphed."-Jack Ziegler "Ordinarily I don't use F-words, but Feggo is a Fabulously Funny Fellow."-Sam Gross "It is a rare cartoonist who appeals to such diverse readerships as the Reader's Digest, Barron's, The New Yorker and Nickelodeon, to name just a few of the magazines where the widely published Felipe Galindo's cartoons can be found. As cartoon editor of The New Yorker I especially enjoy Felipe's carefully constructed sight gags, whose wordless humor unites all demographics in laughter." -Bob Mankoff
