I find my self walking through this barren place a cold breeze passes before my face walking the endless trail falling crawling death all around I push on thunder echoes through the sky, as the buffalo push on. Donnie Martinez This site is dedicated to my family with love. |

"I find myself walking through this barren place; a cold breeze passes before my face; walking the endless trail - falling, crawling death all around. I push on, thunder echoing through the sky, as the buffalo push on."
-Donnie Martinez, describing his painting 'Buffalo Dream' Award-winning artist Donnie Martinez paints as a spiritual outlet. Drawing from his ancestry, his works are primarily of Native American subject matter and, like his ancestors, Donnie's work often starts with a dream or a vision which he is compelled to explore on canvas. Born in 1965 in the small Colorado mountain town of Grand Junction, Donnie feels blessed to have grown up with the beauty of the Grand Mesa and the Book Cliffs around him. Using the rich, earthy colors and symbols native to Colorado and traditional Southwestern arts, he skillfully paints with acrylics, watercolors and, his favorite, oils. Throughout his life Donnie was recognized for his artistic talent, winning outstanding artist of the year on more than one occasion. At 19, he moved to Denver to study communication arts at the Colorado Institute of Art. He has been designing and illustrating as a living for the past 18 years. Donnie currently resides in the San Francisco Bay Area and while he enjoys design, his dream is to spend the majority of his time with oil paints, a canvas, and his visions. |
