Collector Quality Fine Art Photography

by Artist Kenny Martin b. 1974

Welcome. When you have carried a camera around with you for as long as I have you generate a photographic archive.

The Print shop features some of the best work from my 34+ year career as a visual artist.

Limited edition prints are available in a range of sizes and formats to suit and transform all collector spaces.

I have been selling my original artwork since 1997 and prints online from 2006. I have shipped prints all over the world to collectors in Scotland, England, France, Spain, Germany, Finland, Greece, Australia, USA, Japan and Hong Kong.

I am passionate about fine art and photography, camping out in nature, bushcraft and the french way of life.

I hope you enjoy the work.

All images are from my personal art projects.

My art comes from a place outside of time, a still point where time stands on its edge; where the camp fire can gently burn away under a sky filled with stars and moon.

Experiencing and celebrating the elements and the senses first hand is always my primary aim when making my Drawn to Fire photographs. I seek to “capture an ancient light” by immersing myself within an improvised artists studio in the woods where I can become meshed with the location in a way that only camping out allows. Spending the night keeping the campfire going, preserving the different light forms within a composition, an alignment of the light is merged into an artistic and meditative focal point.

I am now releasing prints from my Drawn to Fire: Ritual fire drawing and photography portfolios.

Performances around campfires in remote places explore the mark-making potential of fire in the darkness, the elements and the senses.

When I make this work I depend heavily on my bushcraft and camping skills just being able to dwell in the woods all night long, observe the changes in the location and capture an ancient light.


I personally view each of my collector quality prints as front row seats that transport the owner to right there within the campfire circle.

The print quality is absolutely stunning, gallery-class produced by highly respected fine art photographic studios.

I have been a full time visual artist and framer for nearly 30 years. Mounting and framing my own artwork and other artists work for numerous exhibitions.


I live in Libaros, Hautes-Pyrénées in Southern France. Passionate about picture framing, photography, and camping. I live a 1 hour drive from Toulouse International Airport / Blagnac and a 45min drive from Tarbes-Lourdes Airport.

Collectors wishing to visit my studio in person are welcome by prior appointment.
