2008

A beginning of year passed in hotels, but not to have a rest there. The refreshing of patinas in the Dominion, some lettering for the 71 and faux finishes of bricks and stones at the Château Laurier...

...during the rare sunny days of july, his sister ask him to realize a fresco about the arrival of the king's girls (1666) on the ancestral walls of her fudgery in the old Charlesbourg, Québec. For the 400th anniversary of the town.

 

 He has to work also on a big portrait of Stephen Harper, Jean Charest, the mayor Labeaume, Michaelle Jean, Jean Leclerc, Max Gros-Louis and some others...  

Before leaving recharge batteries to the Magdalena's Islands in august.

We heard he was somewhere in Vermont actually, to make some photo and search for inspiration. Leave a message!


Don't  miss his next abstract show

F R E S H     P A I N T

or

"how to protect a surface from bad weather while exposing it to critics"

    

    

He will celebrate with this expo, his twentieth anniversary of career

(This explains why you will find on this site one big variety of paintings, and it is still there only a fraction.

It was created so to allow you to understand this painter and his constant research)

He will also present a new solo album for the occasion

For those who missed his public happening in Quebec city (carré d'Youville"Enter the dance"

during the gay pride, september 1 and 2 by solidarity for Philippe; or during the auction for G.R.I.S.Québec, beware! 

He will recidive soon. 

Cause "To dance during war is like spitting at devil's mouth"

 

 

That's what inspired him to compose his new opus, the french rock solo album "Doctor Bill Board".

So he had to put the final key in it during winter

 

2009

 

The artist newly ended 5 huge frescoes for the IGA market of Lac St-Charles, the decorative painting at the Cochon Dingue René Lévesque and also for the Brynd Smoked Meat on St-Paul street, the BLU bar and grill and the resto Diana on St-Jean street.

"Fire Ride, Water Ride, Earth Ride and Air Ride"

 

Watch the galleries...

 

We ask musicians to renew themselves, the authors to reinvent their universe and the actors to recreate the whole range of human emotions, but we don't want our painters to be different from a serie to another.

Here is his answer: "multiply all these possibilities by four seasons"

 

 

also watch

conferences on "decorative art and trompe-l'oeil" in the libraries and the different artistic societies of Quebec all along the year

mARTin is looking for a new agent to represent him. Every interested person is invited to contact him by e-mail

 

“To all those who have noticed the absence of image in my record in the 2009-2010 Magazin’art Biannual repertory. Also to those who tried to find my web address in these pages, but without success, (cause they did’nt put the good one) and finally reach my web site after all.”

“I say bravo!”

“Finally, nothing is better than internet to see and learn about our Canadian artists. While avoiding using in vain quantities of not recycled paper."
