She works in a small studio called The Magpie Studio and tends to paint mostly with oil paint and gold leaf. She loves the delicacy and preciousness of gold leaf but uses it in a very free way.

There are many contrasts in her work and she will often fuse slow methodical painting with free playful painting. The work therefore can often have a solemn feel to it yet then also contain a light free hopeful poetic spirit.

Martina's work contains almost a secret language of the heart and they have a very powerful emotional impact on the viewer.

My Art

I have been represented by many prestigious galleries and selected for shows in Ireland, U.S. and Hungary. There is a wonderful, ethereal and dreamlike quality in my expression which is full of magic, intrigue and spirit.

I like to call my work a secret language of the heart and therein lies it's purpose and perhaps healing element in some way.

Following a serious road traffic accident in the Czech Republic, I found painting to be a great aid to my own healing. 

I like to explore with paint, carving and layering it, removing and adding to it playfully until I reach that 'eureka' epiphany moment when the essence of the work reveals itself.

It is a great joy to be able to create like this and "Art heals by giving voice to the soul".
