His interest in Murals and Fine Art dates back to his student years when he first became fascinated with oil and acrylic painting and frescoes. His art works and murals are truly outstanding - an amazing combination of talent, professionalism and technique. He achieves depth and perspective by applying skillful combinations of color and linear perspective. The treatment of subject and light, precision and naturalism is really masterful. Martin pays meticulous attention to every minor detail. Proper sizing and every detail, nuance of light and gradation of color are skillfully incorporated in order to make the two-dimensional work appear to be three-dimensional combined with a modern flavor.. Under the artist’s brush the blank wall  or canvas transforms into a veritable object d’art using his imagination and fantasy. He likes to create his art work based on some surreal ideas, thus provoking the viewers of his paintings to think about that.The artist believes that the surreal and realistic ideas have to work closely in his art work from the very beginning and explore all imagination possibilities in order to achieve the best balance of aesthetics and personal style.
