“Thank you so much for a very informative and enjoyable lecture.  I don’t think we’ve ever had a talk with such a varied selection of images from unfamiliar artists.  It will certainly encourage a different approach with our own compositions” 

Epping Art Society

 

"Martin has a reputation as a great inspirational and educational speaker"  - Letchworth Arts Centre.

 

“I would like to send our appreciation of the excellent talk you gave last Wednesday. Your obvious expertise with paintings of England was well received by our members and it was kind of you to answer all our questions.”

St Albans Art Society

 

“Thank you for the excellent evening you gave us on Thursday. It is really refreshing to see portraits and landscapes described in different terms. The members find the separate strand of analysis that you provide to be very thought provoking."

Watford Camera Club

 

"Martin's highly informative and entertaining lectures capture the imagination of the novice and the enthusiast alike. He takes his audience into the world of painting from new directions."

Arts Culture Harrow

 

"Martin's talk was a fascinating and revealing illumination of an often neglected area of the artistic process - we look forward to more of the same!"
Guildford Art Society

"Many, many thanks for a very instructive and interactive evening. The slides shown covered a wide variety of artists and there was something to suit all tastes. All the members thoroughly enjoyed it and we hope to have you back again in the not too distant future."
The Slough Art Society

"Thank you very much for giving a most interesting talk at short notice. I am sure we will all look at the works of the great masters with a fresh eye, and may even take a sketch book when we next visit a gallery! The slides provoked a lot of discussion." 
Ruislip Manor Art Society

"A fascinating, in-depth look at how paintings are made which will be of great benefit to how we think about our own paintings"
Hillingdon Art Society

 

"Your slide-lecture was enormously appreciated by everyone. We all recognised the value of a new perspective in appraising paintings, which will encourage us to study the Masters' work in a more critical manner, and hopefully enhance our own work. Thank you very much and we all look forward to more."

Pinner Sketch Club
