He is now considered to be the Country's leading gamebird artist and is a regular exhibitor at The Tryon Gallery. He has published several books, including B Martin "Sporting Birds of the British Isles," Newton Abbot 1984.

His portrayal of all English birds, but particularly gamebirds, are eagerly sought after, both in exhibitions and auctions.
