Martin received his MFA from Alfred and BFA from Kansas City Art Institute

For a long time I didn't know the distinction between emeries and pin cushions

and when you press the button on at the center of the wooden base

they're all Magritte-ian fellows speaking to The Treachery of Images

Seeds and Pod, Lovely Old Handmade Glass Slide path Martin received his MFA fromI found this specimen slide and another similar at a favorite New Hampshire stop the other day, which has a back room filled with all sorts of curious things, many of them from old school science departments, labs and the like. I just think it makes for a lovely object with these delicate pods and wispy seeds, and I like the idea of the seeds as suspended possibilities, never released into the wind but still looking ready to take flight. 4" x 3 5 6",
