Humor Blended With Art
He inserts a touch of humor into his art when he can and sometimes a bit of color. Most of his originals, however, are black on white.
Philosophy
Martin's philosophy is simply, “If I can make a living doing something I love and make one person reminisce or smile, I have succeeded.”
Education
He attended The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the John Hussian School of Art. After retiring from a career in graphic commercial art he resumed his fine art career and now concentrates on his own artistic pursuits.
