WHAT DO THE CRITICS SAY ABOUT PETROS MARTIN'S WORK?







Title: Second Chance, acrylic on canvas, 48x36 inches ~Petros Martin~
 
Petros Martin's artwork is absorbed in modernism and show sophisticated technique. Clearly his work is motivated by a background of sensitive insight.......Petros' voice is visual. He honours what is fundamentally honourable, respects what is most fine and, above all, reveres what is tenderly human. Petros' work will never be anything less than the recognition of such tenderness and it is this honesty which is revealed with each caress of his brush.~
Michael Golland, Toronto

In the many years that I have known Petros Martin I have attempted to keep abreast with his artistic explorations and I must confess that he has taken giant strides in the realm of art making. But there is one aspect that has remained unchanged in his work, and this to me is the essence of his artistic expression and his existential dimension, Petros to me remains solitary, profound, sublime.~

Petros Martin talks to our souls. His art shakes our emotions and questions our intellect. Humanity's violence explodes in those mystic eyes that cut across the oblique, surrealistic faces that uniquely express Martin's art. Petros forces us to seek love - the alternative is our souls' torment.
Sandro Marini, Italy

"Martin is a profound master of emotional canvas painting."
REAL art comes from the soul of a man and it is his voice alone that matters....Alexander's Gallery, Tampa

Petros' approach to art is uninhibited and sincere. He believes that his paintings are fully absorbed "when they are lived with and permitted to filter down to our emotions". Such an accomplishment comes from his spontaneous force of creation and the free expression of images and hidden feelings.
