The visual impact of Martin Mulherns work rests in attention to detail that is even more impressive given the coloured-pencil media he works in. Martin Mulhern is a self-confessed draftsman, that is the clue to the superb handling he demonstrates. He is most at ease when his intentions can be carefully planned and coloured pencil appeals to this sort of methodical approach.

The imagery used is a curious mixture that is Surrealist in nature yet figurative as well as descriptive, reflecting aspects of Dali and Magritte. Martin Mulhern deals with symbolism on a personal level. His own ideals are expressed through his poetry written to serve as metaphor for his pictures.

Martin Mulherns work is for sale as limited edition prints and the artist invites people to contact he directly to discuss sales and commissions.
