Art: Magic Martin

There are some special people who have the gift to make you happy simply by smiling at you. Martin is one of those people. And it’s not only his merry laughter that infects you; his whole personality is amazing. You simply feel GOOD when he’s around. And beside his incredible kindness, he is an excellent drummer, dances extraordinarily well, plus can mimic all kind of voices, percussions and vehicles, in short, all kind of sounds.

Unfortunately, I only meet him once or twice a year, mostly on festivals. This year he decided to visit us before accompanying hubby to hubby’s beloved festival, the famous “Summerjam”. He was shown around the house, and to my utmost delight, surveyed each of my pics hanging on various walls very intensely. You’ve got to know, in RL it’s not often that somebody notices my pics, least of all remarks on them. So his enthusiasm astounded me, and made me feel awkward.

Hoping that I can return the delight, I drew a pic of him tonight; click if interested:


Title: Magic Martin
Artist: eyesemerald
Materials Used: Soft pastels on black cardboard
Notes: Martin loves to make fun, and he doesn’t stop to make fun of himself. Last time I saw him, we were sitting peacefully around a campfire. Suddenly he leapt up, performed a wild dance, and raised his hands beseechingly above the fire, rolling his eyes. We laughed until our stomachs ached. So, that’s the scene I tried to depict, of course a bit exaggerated. *g*
