My name is Jessica Martin, I’m the artist behind J. A. Martin Art. I’ve been absolutely obsessed with animals and drawing since I was a young child. I’m very fortunate to have always had animals in my life and have always been encouraged to express my creativity. As an adult, I’ve been able to combine both of my passions by creating hand drawn portraits of beloved pets and incredible wildlife. I began my artistic journey working with graphite pencils and focused on creating beautiful black and white pieces. Recently, I began playing with colour pencils and have absolutely fallen in love with creating colourful animal portraits. I’m very pleased to be able to offer both types of portraits to clients looking to have custom hand drawn portraits done of their beloved animals.
