The Golden Hour at Brewery Pottery

“When I was a kid, I milked cows before school and would look out at the barnyard and see all the colors transformed,” Martin said. “When the sun comes up, everything is bathed in this beautiful golden light.” 

Martin, is interested in observing and painting the effect of light falling on the landscape. His work is created outdoors, painted en plein air, taking direct inspiration from the subject. By using color to show atmosphere he will often return to the same location to capture different moods of the same scene. His luminous paintings are created with active brushwork and broken color.
