Martin was born in Radcliffe, Lancashire, England, in 1961. After studying Fine Art at Liverpool Art School he pursued a career in education, teaching for thirty three years in inner city Manchester, working for The Bahamas Ministry of Education and eventually becoming the Head of Art and Design at an independent Grammar School in Cheshire. He has now retired from teaching and paints full time. Martin's fascination for exploring every aspect of watercolour and acrylic painting, his skills of draughtsmanship, precision, accuracy, detail and unique, quirky style combined with his deep affection for the North West of England, have resulted in his paintings being commissioned and purchased for private collections in this country and abroad. His work hangs in private collections across the world including The UK, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Hawaii, Canada, Mexico, Norway, Sweden, Israel, France, Spain, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Malta, Thailand, U.A.E., Singapore and Ireland.

I am not an art critic, but this original picture conjurs up just the effect that my wife appreciates. She loves snowy scenes and naive art both. Great Christmas present
Submitted by Raymond Wiseman 02/12/2016Service
Great website, selling original works at an affordable price. Purchase efficiently dispatched, and a delight when received. The packing tube did leave the picture rather tightly rolled, so it was difficult to straighten for the frame. Excellent other than this minor niggle.
