The sculpture shows allot of promise. (reminds me a little of McGee's Alice)
Love artist that are brave enough to branch into sculpture from painting.

Martin's actually done a bit of sculpture in the past. This snail-bunny piece is, in fact, #1 in an edition of 250 which will be released in a few months. Only the first 3 figures will be hand-painted by Martin, and I'm thrilled that he's given us the very first one for the "Cry for Help" benefit show. Here are some sculptures he's done previously.    |

bumped into martin at the aqua art fair in miami. first time i'd got to see his work in a non jpg kind of way. really impressive.  he was a nice guy too - he gave me one of his business cards, which was a signed and numbered mini-print. how cool is that? |

That Lantern piece is still for sale (it showed Aqua Wynwood and didn't sell). Now it has been made a part of the Tempest Show at Copro Nason: www.martinwittfooth.com/Tempest/tempestshow.htmlSeems like the price has gone up $200! Acutually, it's entitled Fountain. It's birds on a plant growing out of a van? Lovely piece. It comes framed. |

Martin Wittfooth will be opening a new exhibition at Roq La Rue this December entitled "The Devil's Playground". Martin's new exhibition shows a profound jump in sophistication in both technique and content. Ping me if you want to get on a preview.  |

That is magnificent, a true masterpiece.
Did not think Wittfooth could get any better but here we are.
Congratulations to whomever scores this jewel.

I saw another new piece on his website the other day, and I could not believe how amazing the new piece was. There was a very signifacant improvement in technique (bare in mind this is an amatur talking). He was already one of my favourtie artist before this new work, and as virtue said, i didnt think he could get much better, let alone to this level. Major props

Beautiful pieces. Perhaps a plant themed show is coming up as it's called "Gardens".  |

I must say, of all the artists I see on this board, Martin is one of the artists that has improved his skills the most. I have always been fascinated with his work, but I really feel that the new work is a step up in so many ways. Light, technique, concept of show, etc.
The new stuff is simply mesmerizing, if only I could go.

New suns is amazing. Martin is one of the artists I keep an eye on.
I love the light on this one.
