“To be a truly great artist, one must master all aspects of one’s craft,” says Matthew Martelli, self-taught artist of local renown throughout New England. “The learning process, he says, “must be a constant effort towards working to develop new and better concepts while always striving for perfection within the flow of creativity.” In his 20-year career, using a trial-and-error method of learning, Matthew has developed an artistic style that is truly his own. This will be Mathew's second time competing at Revere Beach. You can check out Matt's portfolio at http://www.martellistudio.com/
