HOMEPAGE AND BANNER ARTWORK © MARTY BRAUN

Marty is a freelance illustrator who has called Peaks Island home for 25 years. His wife and daughter say Peaks is the best place to live, and he’s not apt to argue with them. He works at home, drinking coffee, and watching wild turkeys stroll through the yard. See his work at martybraun.com
