Martin
was born in The Bronx and got art education from the streets of
New York City. His first passion was comic book art but he was
quickly thrown into graffiti because of it's provocative and
rebellious meaning. After several years of painting graffiti his
focus turned to painting on canvas and exploring various art
mediums and techniques.
Modern art from the 1980s had a big influence on Martin as he
witnessed first hand the art of the young minds of New York City
and other up and coming artists like himself. Although Martin
has been an artist almost all his life, it has only been in the
last 15 years that he has had the freedom to tap into his
creative mind and pursue his dream of creating art full time.
Martin's art style has no boundaries and his paintings are
evidence that he has versatility in almost any medium. He enjoys
working mostly with oils but often has a watercolor or acrylic
painting nearby to finish. Although Martin has no particular
style when he paints, his passion for comic book art and
graffiti are still evident in his style of painting and in the
way he uses his colors.
He believes that art is ever changing, much like life itself,
and that people need to adapt constantly if they are to survive
in the art world. His work can be seen in various businesses as
framed art and mural paintings.
