Marti Macfly - Artist, Painter, Muralist and Entrepreneur Unlocks the Power of Creativity

Join Marti Macfly, visionary artist, painter, and entrepreneur, and founder of ArtKlub, as he shares his inspiring journey.  Marti Macfly's artistic journey began with many transformative train rides to Kalk Bay, where vibrant street art ignited his creative spark within. Fusing this raw inspiration with classical painting and design foundations learned at school and university, Marti cultivated a evolving and unique style that would lead him to paint murals internationally.  This harmonious blend of urban story and traditional technique forged the innovative painter he is today. After university with the taste for travel firmly set, he used murals as trade with backpackers to travel the world. He shares the evolution of his unique style, how he brought the lessons of painyting walls back to the canvas, the inception of ArtKlub during COVID-19, what he terms an ‘Analog Visual artschool for Grownups.’ Also focussed on painting, ArtKlub is an accessible way for people to get involved in visual art, including an online course coming out in December.  Marti chats about his art practice, moving  between the studio where he creates figurative, expressive oil painting and murals around and out of the city. He dives into his monumental 10m x 7m masterpiece in Cape Town and its connection to environmental awareness. He also talks about meeting the surfing legend Kelly Slater, and how his portrait now features in the California Surf History Museum. Discover the origin story of his nickname, inspired by Back to the Future's Marty McFly. Tune in for an unforgettable conversation exploring art, adventure, and entrepreneurship.
