Introduction

Damian Martin’s illustrations reflect a lifetime of observing and then replicating nature on paper. Doodling bugs and snakes as a child has grown into an ability to generate realistic, imaginative, and earthy images with masterful organic detail.

Illustrations serve as a vital creative outlet between work and studies. Martin is a mapper by day and a scientist by night, having recently completed his M.A. in Environmental Science from University of Virginia.
