Martin Poole

Martin Poole graduated in 1979 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Printmaking from the State University of New York at Buffalo, and he has continued to develop his practice through private study with Thomas S. Buechner. In addition to creating his own work, Poole teaches portrait painting workshops at the Thomas Buechner Studio and offers courses in oils, watercolors, landscapes, and ceramics at the 171 Cedar Arts Center—both located in Corning, New York.

Poole’s work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions across the United States, including at the Rockwell Museum and Arnot Art Museum in New York, the Kilby Art Center in New Jersey, Great American Artists in Ohio, Artists of America in Colorado, and the Wellsboro Regional Show in Pennsylvania, where he earned both second- and third-place awards.
