Life
E. J. Martin, Midnight Golfer, 1990 Eugene James Martin did not adhere to any particular school or art movement, remaining an individualist throughout his life. His art defies categorization. After attending the Corcoran School of Art from 1960-1963, he became a professional fine arts painter, considering artistic integrity his only guide. He briefly lived in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, from 1990-1994, returned to Washington DC, and in 1996 moved to Lafayette, Louisiana with his wife, a biologist, whom he married in 1988.
