Martin was a chemistry teacher from South Africa but his passion was always art. he eventually took that creative risk, resigned from a job that was impeding his creative development and painted this work. I had the privelege of being able to hang it in my blue room for a period. Waking up in the morning watching the rays of the Sun come through my window and lighting up his work was breath-taking, I spent many times sitting in bed looking at this, it gave a sense of calmness, amongst the chaos that an art squat often engenders in ones life.
