Marty did an amazing job capturing our Victorian LGBTIQA+ Regional/Rural Youth Forum event. His work has given us a great visual that we can now use to demonstrate the feeling of the day's discussions & areas for improvement. A fantastic contribution to the day & for communication moving forward. Thank you Marty for understanding what we needed, being an inclusive and welcoming part of the event, and for the visual that captured the day so perfectly.
- Merrin Wake, CEO The AWARE Project, On Wadawurrung Country
Marty's talent for graphic recording and illustration brought fun, creativity and clarity to our team building event. He created a series of posters, representing each of our business regions. Now, thanks to Marty's imaginative artwork, we not only have fond memories of the event but also a valuable collection of visuals to engage with going forward.

Marty has illustrated a number of our online webinars. We found Marty really easy to work with, and he always created a product that was perfectly tailored to suit our requirements. Marty’s sketches were just what we need to convey information (that would otherwise be quite technical and dry) in an interesting and engaging way. His sketches also provided us with an avenue to hold the attention of visual learners. We have received lots of positive feedback on Marty’s illustrations and we would not hesitate to work with him on future projects.
