BETTER - ON PAPER! Speedprint was established in 1983 by father and son Martin and Vincent Goode. Having previously run a small graphic design studio for five years, the opening of a print shop was a natural step.

We produce quality artwork and printing specifically targeted to our customers’ requirements and we can enhance the way your image is represented by creating distinctive designs individually tailored to best suit your type of business. MARTIN GOODEwas born in London and showed interest in sketching and cartooning from his early schooldays. He lived in Tillicoultry in Scotland for five years, which inspired his passion for the rugged British countryside. His non-stop drawing and cartooning soon turned to painting which he continued to study in his home county of Essex. Martin's career started as a creative photographer, then a commercial artist and graphic designer
The combination of Art, Photography and Printing paved the way to develop a publishing company in 1987, producing fine art prints depicting scenes of British cities, towns and villages. Martin's original paintings adorn homes all over the world and he quickly became one of the industry's most prolific and sought after watercolour artists. He wrote many articles for artists' magazines, produced his own library of instruction videos, has held one man exhibitions and demonstrated his watercolour techniques at many art exhibitions and seminars. Commissions for original paintings were received from palaces, town councils, commercial organisations, art galleries and individual collectors. Martin Goode passed away in February 2002 after a sudden illness.
