Martin, (b. Washington, D.C., July 24, 1938 - d. Lafayette, Louisiana, January 1, 2005) was a prolific African American visual artist, who is best known for his imaginative, complex mixed media collages on paper, his often gently humorous pencil and pen and ink drawings, and his paintings on paper and canvas that may incorporate whimsical allusions to animal, machine and structural imagery among areas of "pure", constructed, biomorphic or lyrical abstraction.

It's so nice to see Eugene's art showcased on Sharkforum. Sharkwise, he'd be the magnificent whale shark, the gentle filter-feeder, filtering in positive thoughts, filtering out negative ones.
