I am truly sorry to hear of the passing of Michael Gilmartin, an older brother of one of my best childhood and high school chums, Bobby.

Both were brilliant artists and their pieces literally enthralled those...

I knew Michael for over 25 years, admired his work, enjoyed his kindness, and over the years,
put together a good collection of his pieces.
His heart could be seen in each piece and one could identify his work at a glance. It was like him, different, strong, and artful. How good it was to visit his shop and just talk about work & life. He will be sorely missed!
RIP Michael as I rock in your chair remembering you.
