From the Ashes is a quiet but powerful declaration — a reminder that God can bring life from the most barren places. I painted this outside on our acreage in the Thousand Islands, with my newborn daughter Autumn asleep beside me in her bassinet. That summer was filled with sacred stillness, new motherhood, and a deep awareness of beauty in the smallest things. This piece, like many from that season, felt like a prayer poured out in color.

The surface is rough and grey, textured like ash or weathered earth. But from its center bursts a bloom of vibrant fuchsia, soft pink, and white — fierce, radiant, and full of life. The colors move with conviction, pushing upward like new growth after fire. It’s the Spirit showing up in defiance of despair — a visual resurrection.

Part of the Living Waters collection, From the Ashes speaks to God’s ability to transform what feels lifeless into something luminous. Not just restored — but made new.

Welcome

Hi, I'm Martina

Canadian artist, wife, and mama of two little wild ones. My work is rooted in a longing for peace. It’s in the fleeting moments of creating that I feel closest to God—like something sacred is moving through the process, gently inviting me to listen, trust, and share.

Testimonials

★★★★★

There's something truly remarkable about Martina's work; the intention behind every brushstroke is so easy to see. When you take a step back to see the full painting is where you can see the story it tells and the layers that unfold. Her art doesn't just decorate a space, it speaks to you - and that's not something you can find in a store.

The texture in Martina's paintings is so realistic and engrossing. Her choice of colours is always warm and vibrant. I love her paintings and have one on display in my main living room at home where everyone can see and enjoy it!

I can’t thank Martina enough for the incredible custom piece she painted for me. I commissioned a portrait of the moment I hit a personal best in the deadlift during a powerlifting competition. It was a moment that meant so much to me and she nailed it!

The way she captured my emotions, the intensity, and even the smallest details of my expression and posture was unbelievable. It’s more than just a drawing or painting—it’s a snapshot of one of the proudest moments in my competitive journey as an athlete.

From start to finish, Martina was professional, communicative, and made me eager to get my painting. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out, and it will be hung up in my gym forever.

If you’re thinking about commissioning something meaningful, I can’t recommend Martina enough.

I have one of Martina's charcoal originals and it makes me feel hopeful for my future whenever I look at it. The Parisian scene makes me think of a warm summer night there under a red umbrella. I also have some of her abstracts and they make me feel stimulated and draw my eyes to the stunning pinks and golds. I feel free of the stresses of my life. Her artworks in my front hall way make me feel confident as I put on my shoes and start my day.
