Name: Mama

Medium: Graphite on paper

Collection: Graphite Reverence

 

Description:

Mama is one of the most personal pieces I’ve ever drawn. I created it while pregnant with my first child, Autumn — at a time when love was already overflowing, but I hadn’t yet met the little one I’d give it to. It was my way of trying to capture that sacred bond I could already feel forming — fierce, quiet, protective, and full of awe.

Drawn entirely in graphite, the image shows a wolf mother and her pup, nose to nose, with a softness that speaks more than words. The fur, the tension in the gesture, the closed eyes — everything in this piece was meant to honor that moment of connection. There’s strength here, but it’s gentleness that carries the weight.

Part of the Graphite Reverence collection, Mama is about more than animals. It’s about the way love transforms us — before we even hold it in our arms.

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.
