Martin Waugh received his B.S. degree in Physics from Lewis and Clark College in Oregon. He lives in Portland, where he has kayaked many of the white water Rivers in Oregon. His work can be found in museum, corporate, and private art collections.

Martin takes high speed pictures of water drops that drop on the surface of the water creating patterns which he calls liquid sculptures. he uses emotion to portray his pictures. A big key factor in his work is science, without science he would not be able to take pictures like that so science what inspires him.

What I liked about Martins work is how the water drops made  a design in the water when photographed with a high speed camera. What really made me feel connected to his work are the emotions that he used to portray the pictures that he took. An aspect I would try to use is using emotion without using words for a picture that I take later on in this session.
