Martin Kaye Artist
I'm a project based artist working with colour, varied media and line to portray recognisable subjects in an individual way.
I'm currently interested in making landscape and townscape cartoons based on places I know well - the Glamorgan Coast, Ruthin and the Clwydian Range in North Wales. In achieving these cartoon landscapes you'll often see me outside on location with my sketchbook. Working outside to capture and develop an image always works best for me. I use watercolour pastels, ink and watercolour pencils which give me the vibrant colours and sharp details that I like.
