James Martin

“I have been a full time painter since switching from a medical career to return to my love of painting and creating art. I live in the south west of Britain, on the edge of Dartmoor, with Helen my wife, and our two boys JJ and Ben.

Since becoming a Christian in my teens, I have had a natural tendency to express my faith creatively, whether the subject is a Dartmoor landscape or a meditation on a Biblical passage.  I am interested in light, colour and atmosphere, and in the way the landscape can speak to the spiritual part of each one of us. I also enjoy life drawing and portrait work. Much of my original work is now in pastel, which I value for its speed and versatility, though I enjoy working in other media too.”
