Hello, my name is Martin Varennes-Cooke,
and I'm a doodle addict. Brighton

I bring a Fine Art approach to a Pop Art aesthetic – after studying Fine Art and obtaining my degree in 1996 I have been trying to perfect my style of both drawing and painting over the years. I believe an Artist is always evolving. Last February I set myself a challenge to do one drawing every day - it was tough! and to be honest I didn't quite manage a whole year, BUT, If at first you don't succeed, try and try again! - so starting this February (2018) i'm going to start afresh - you can see some of my past drawings here and i'll be uploading new one's as and when I do them.....so......take a look, hope you like. Cheers

I specialize in art, drawing, illustration, portraits.

Start of a series of drawings exploring pattern. The more Garish the better :)

Patternz - Series 3. In this series I'm still sticking with the Patterned backgrounds, but this time they have been carefully chosen to compliment the chosen animal subject, rather than the human portraits of series 1 & 2.

1st drawing for March 18 - part of the drawing a day challenge

I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
