Luella Martin

Luella Martin is a painter and printmaker and describes her current practice as landscapes and townscapes.  Her work also has a strong personal narrative – incorporating the places she knows well and has visited often.  Recent solar etchings have also contained some iconic landmarks such as Battersea Power Station which she first encountered as a child growing up in London, and glimpses of the London skyline, Richmond Park, and views of Brighton and Hastings.
 
Luella was educated in London, studying at Hornsey & Byam Shaw Colleges of Art. Her post-graduate studies were undertaken at Goldsmiths College, London, and she lectured part time in London and Sussex before travelling extensively in Europe and living in Australia for 12 years.  She returned to England in 1997 & now works full-time at her studio on the south coast.
