Martin Koch is a South African wildlife and landscape painter born around 1940. He is noted for his highly detailed, realistic animal paintings and wilderness scenes. Koch has been called the country's youngest professional artist (he began painting at age 18). He often immerses himself in nature to study wildlife up close. His hyperrealist canvases capture African animals and vistas with photographic clarity. Koch's work reflects his lifelong passion for conservation and African scenery. He has exhibited in many South African galleries and is respected for the precision and vibrancy of his wildlife art.
