"Martine aims to create artworks that lift peoples spirts by viewing the ever changing ocean, creating a window to the sea. To her the energy of the Sea represents life. Martine hopes to raise much need awareness about a terminal disease...Mitochondrial Disease.
Martine’s son, Tom, suffers from the disease which has no treatment and no known cure. Martine is a passionate supporter for research into understanding Mito with the hopes of finding a cure. Today with the help of family and friends she has raised over $230,000 for research. She truly hopes her art will make a difference.
