LUKE MARTINEAU: TEXTURE & LIGHT

22 MAY - 7 JUNE 2024

"I first admired Luke’s work in The Drawing Schools at Eton nearly forty years ago, when he was a schoolboy. Even then his evident passion for art, combined with a natural confidence in his handling of paint, suggested the likelihood of a successful career as a painter. I have followed his career ever since and am proud to say the Bridgeman Art Library has supported and represented him in the licensing world for many years. Luke’s paintings contain echoes of the work of his artistic heroes, among them Monet and William Nicholson, but his painterly touch is very much his own, and immediately recognisable.

‘Texture and Light’ is something of a showcase for Luke’s skill with oil paint: he handles shimmering fabric, as well as water, with verve and sensitivity. These paintings have an easy naturalism, and in our ever more fretful era his pictures speak of the good things in life, an appreciation of the beauty in nature and the importance of savouring our engagement with the world around us. I find pleasure looking at the flow of paint in these assured and keenly observed pieces, as I am sure you will too. I would encourage you to come and see the exhibition, and if you are not already collecting his work, to start doing so straight away!"
