“A very talented artist who creates amazing, original, elegant and eye-catching artwork. It represents the ancient Greek mythology in an authentic but at the same time quirky way with beautiful colours and design. This was my second purchase from Dick Martin, and he did not disappoint me. Absolutely thrilled to own these stunning pieces of Dick Martin’s artwork that also display my Greek heritage. Excellent service and communication” UK “The Stargazers are superb sculptures, the figures simply urge you to engage in their sense of confused wonder. Incredibly well packaged, it took us two days to open them! If you want unique art pieces that demand your attention then Dick Martin is your man. Recommended.” UK “Theseus arrived today and we are bowled over. He is quite magnificent with intricate detail and pose. The sculpture really is fabulous! Communication from Dick was excellent and we were delighted to receive supporting documentation of authentication. It’s been a pleasure doing business with Dick.” UK “These two make my fourth sculpture I’ve gotten from Dick. Even though I live in California, they arrive fast and very well wrapped. These are heavy substantial sculptures. I love them. I am a collector now. I will probably purchase more.” USA “When I saw this piece I immediately liked it and knew although a stylised piece would fit into our more rustic setting. It arrived really well packed to ensure it arrived in perfect condition and sooner than expected. Dick Martin was easy to deal with and quickly responded to my emails.

The sculpture is gorgeous, what I was expected. Dick is a kind, talented, respectful and professional artist. I highly recommend his work followed buy his kind messages exchange. Worried about knowing if I got the sculpture and I liked it. How could I not. Bravo Dick and keep on with your beautiful art.” France “Thank you Dick for creating "Stargazer" , you truly have a gift. This piece will make a fantastic addition within our home and we simply love the quizzical look of both potential and wonder that is placed by you into "Stargazer's" face as he looks up to greet you upon walking into our snug room. We will follow your future work and hope to add some more very soon.” UK “Beautiful sculpture! Large, expressive and unique. Could not have dreamed of something more fantastical and perfect. Thank you for sharing your gifts! Perfectly wrapped and delivered.” USA “Achilles is the most gorgeous clay piece that I have ever seen. Was a Birthday gift to my husband and he was ecstatic. Everything was 100% in any way imaginable. So happy with my purchase!” Luxembourg “This is my second sculpture from Dick Martin. I will buy more. Be prepared to spend some time unwrapping Them, I bet I could drop them from a 5 story building, they are wrapped that well.” USA “Great communication, this sculpture brings me joy every day.” USA “The sculpture looks great, I really like it.

He is a brilliant, prompt communicator and so appreciative of one's interaction. The items were superbly packaged and are a joy to live with.” UK “I really like this style of clay sculpture and the fact that the image is from Greek mythology is an extra bonus, as I was born in Greece. Lovely art work and excellent service.” UK “The sculpture is very nice indeed.” Switzerland “Lovely piece. I think it’s very well priced and was perfectly packed and delivered.” UK « Colis reçu rapidemment très bien emballé et oeuvres protégées à l'intérieur. Le travail de Dick est magnifique. J'adore! Très bons échanges également avec l'artiste. Je vous le recommande. » France “My sculpture shipped extremely fast. It was exciting, there was so much wrapping, it felt like birthing a baby. No breakage. My not easily impressed family were all impressed. This will not be the last one I buy. Thank you Dick! USA “Dick Martin’s work appeals greatly - fun with a dark edge. Or so it seems to me. I will be returning to Dick’s work. The Greek inspired noble figures appeal as do the clay wall art based on Greek myth. In fact if I had the space I’d get the lot.” UK “I absolutely love my beautiful sculpture." Every time I walk into the house I see this amazing artwork. I'll definitely make more purchases in the future -- thank you, Dick!” USA “The whole purchase experience from the pleasure of ogling the images of the sculpture to the personal email from the artist was great. I absolutely adore the sculpture - it's got a beautiful, interesting texture and colours; it is quirky and fun! It makes me happy every time I enter the room where it stands in a prominent position.” UK “Excellent artist - work arrived quickly and was well packaged. The piece is really wonderful and interesting Certainly recommended!” UK “The sculpture I purchased from Dick Martin is truly wonderful, even better than in the photo. Very inspiring and tactile. It is a good weight which will prevent my cat knocking it over and it has pride of place on a hallway stand. Thank you for a really lovely piece of art to treasure.” UK “Awesome piece. Well packaged and quick delivery!” USA “I've had my eye on Dick's sculptures for a long time and especially love the inspiration behind his 'personification' series. The artwork arrived at my door really quickly and very well packaged, impressively so. The piece indeed has a beautiful texture and is even more 'earthy' and detailed in real life. It's relatively heavy too, which only adds more to the quality of the piece. Really happy with my first ever sculpture, thanks Dick!” UK “Highly recommended artist, great communication. The sculpture arrived in a couple of days a lot quicker than I was expecting and was very well packaged, so arrived safely. It is a really beautiful piece of work, which I am extremely pleased with.” UK “A very beautiful painting, exactly as I hoped it would be, very true to the photo, even more stunning than the picture due to the 3D effects! Great communication from Dick, arrived safe and sound via UPS on Wednesday after ordering it at the weekend, super well packed. Thank you so much!” UK “Wonderful sculptures now displayed in my home. Dick did an awesome job with the packaging to ensure they’d arrive safely, and also helped with managing the shipping and import into the US, providing status all along the way.” USA “I love how the sentinels look on my table. Their bewildered expressions while carrying out guard duty leaves much to the imagination. I think Dick should make an army of them!” Singapore “Love this sculpture so had to buy another! Thanks very much Dick!” Spain
