Jean Paul Gaultier for her – perfume bottle art

Martin’s interpretation of an empty Jean Paul Gaultier for her bottle of perfume. He loves trying to capture the irridesence and reflections of the glass.

It is said by some that a bottle of perfume can last a lifetime…the who…the where…the when…

Now all that remains are the memories.

About the artist
Martin Allen is a London based artist. Martin came to oil painting through a circuitous route, having drawn for most of his life and being largely self-taught he was eventually re-introduced to oil painting as a preferred medium to create his varied and diverse work. The methods he uses to paint are classic ones, using layered paint applications rounded off by oil glazes. These create, add depth and harmonise colours. He has shown solo numerous times at Goodwood, The Affordable Art Fair and others, been a finalist at the ‘London art Biennale 2019’, alongside various commissions including work for the BP Shipping collection, and most recently Vogue magazine.
