Golfstyle is the best fashion magazine for golfers in Canada. These four spreads were part of the Spring 2011 issue. Fashion was shot on location at the new Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. Equipment was shot in the photographer's studio. The magazine has received much praise. In fact, the Dutch Golf Weekly rated Golfstyle the number 1 source for golf fashion worldwide.

Here´s what my coleagues have to say about me:

The launch of TechSoup Canada would not have been the same without Gil's creative leadership. He transformed a rough idea--of showcasing the historical time-line of TechSoup Global during the launch of TechSoup Canada--into an exhibition.
The result of Gil's vision was a series of extraordinary, hand-crafted, perfectly displayed--posters.
All of the key stakeholders who attended the launch celebration were delighted by the exhibition, and we have plans to display Gil's art permanently at the TechSoup Global headquarters in San Francisco.

Gil Martinez was not only a creative and resourceful art director, he also brought wonderful enthusiasm and energy into the entire editorial group. He was probably one of the most liked colleagues by his peers I have known in my nearly 30 years at Yankee.
Mel Allen, Editor-in-chief, Yankee Magazine

Working with Gil was one of the best parts of the job. He is talented and creative, eager to tackle new challenges, and was always willing to take on additional work, even when it went beyond his job description. Even better, his broad education and life experience made him a knowledgeable resource on editorial matters. A true team player.
Amy Traverso, Food editor, Yankee Magazine

Gil is an innovative Art Director, with special strengths in Type Design and Direction of Photography with a modernist flair. He directs others well, and works to build a team that can create beautiful publications on a tight deadline -- and keep the budget in line as well. I have enjoyed working with him very much.
Susan Champeny, Art Director, IDG
