Martin John Fowler was born and grew up in South Yorkshire where he studied painting and printmaking, obtaining a BA(Hons) in Fine Art in Sheffield.
Over the last two decades, he has spent most of his time in Cornwall and, consequently, his unmistakable style has gained significant recognition amongst Cornwall’s artistic community.
His striking colour palette and dynamic paintings have an intense sense of energy; from wind-scarred, rugged landscapes to bustling harbours packed with fishing vessels.
His ‘The Prevailing Sense Change’ is an ongoing project in which he aims to capture the changes to Cornwall’s working ports, partly taken from his childhood memories up to the impact of life in present day harbours.
Martin’s deep-rooted relationship with the sea can be felt in his passion for the county, immersing himself in the elements and life of the Cornish community.
