“They give you a round bat, and they throw you a round ball, and then they tell you to hit it square.”
– Willie Stargell
“Baseball is a perfect excuse to start drawing, but I can think of many.”
– The Artist
There are two simple and honest yes/no questions this website aspires to answer:
1. Do you want J. Martin to draw something for you? If the answer is YES, the first thing you need to do is go to the Commissions page so you have all the information you need, including the different options of prices. Alternatively, you may also visit the artist’s Portfolio, where you can see different examples of his artwork.
2. Do you want the artist to draw in a different style? If the answer is YES, don’t waste your time. J. Martin abides by the style established by masters such as Jack Kirby, Gene Colan or Neal Adams. Pretending the artist to impersonate any other style would be an unreal expectation. So, as an example, don’t ask J. Martin to draw manga style.
No AI (Artificial Intelligence) has been used or will be used in the creation of any illustration made by Jose Martin.
All the artwork included on this website, or any other kind of drawing by J.M., has been hand-drawn. This is the only applicable scenario in his illustrations.
If there is any type of protagonism taken by AI, to any degree, in any of J. Martin’s artwork, this should only be understood in one way: the artist is dead, and a form of AI has supplanted his person.
