Oils
Andy Martinez has found a love for plein air painting. Originally from New Mexico, he studied the arts at an early age while in high school. Andy found a passion for painting, sculpture, drawing/cartoon and pottery. He excelled in school programs and won awards during his high school art career.
Andy was in the Marines for eight years and went on to achieve his PhD and MBA. During these years, he was always sketching or dabbling in the arts. It was not until October of 2019 that Andy renewed his interest into the arts. He started with graphite and values studies and soon moving into oil paints.
Andy challenges himself by finding subjects with complex lighting and shadows. On any given day, you may see him outside capturing the beauty of the area in his plein air style.
He has exhibited at Van Der Plas Gallery, NYC, August and September of 2020.
