MARTHA ERLEBACHER

A great artist and even greater friend.

I´ll never forget Martha! I often dream about her.

I was Martha’s neighbor for twenty years. I’ll never forget her.

We greatly miss you still Martha. Your love of others and the love of meaningful art still brings warmth to so many hearts.

So sorry to hear of this news. Martha was a sublime teacher and I will never forget what she'd passed on to me. I owe much of my success to her wisdom.

It is with a saddened heart that I just found out my dear friend from long ago has passed away. Martha was an incredible inspiration to me as a young woman.

I went over to her house and brought her dinner and I quickly realized that she had more energy than me! She then insisted on the next time I come - that...

Very sad †o hear of Martha's passing.

We are very sorry to post at this late date. The art world has lost a great artist, teacher and curator. We had the pleasure to meet Martha in Amarillo, Texas. where she juried a fabulous show which featured Figurative Paintings. We were of kindred minds, and enjoyed her lecture immensely. So happy to have had this opportunity. She will be greatly missed.
