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.  

mARTin does not care, and will however celebrate his twentieth anniversary of career in 2008

(This, also 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)
