FEATURED ARTIST - MARTIN MAYO

“For the past year I have been working in an inner city school system. Simple things that I have taken for granted seem unattainable for some students brought up in this environment. I see the joy of reading as a tool to fuel the imagination”.

Martin Mayo is a conceptual artist. His illustrations appear regularly in the Washington Post, The National Law Journal, The New Jersey Monthly, The Progressive, Cornell Magazine, and Utne Reader. Martin is a graduate of the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York City, receiving his Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. He is a member of the Graphic Artists Guild. He lives in New Jersey with his wife (pre-k teacher) and twin boys.

“Martin has unique and beautiful illustrations. His line quality and character style has a simple sophistication, which is what drew me to his work. I especially love Martin’s calligraphy – he has many different styles, all of which are like little works of art!”
