Toque Grosso Painting

Carina Martins is an exceptional abstract-surrealist painter whose works capture the emotional power and energy of nature, as well as the passion of women. Born in Portugal and raised in Switzerland, she discovered her true passion for art and painting during her studies in Interior Design. As a self-taught artist, Carina dedicated countless hours to refining her skills in watercolor painting and sketching. In 2002, she received oil paints and supplies from her grandparents as a gift, and in that moment, she knew that oil painting would become her preferred medium. Her latest series, “Moonlight Flowers,” is an expression of her deep inspiration drawn from the merging of the moon, sun, and water, as well as the harmonious balance between the feminine and masculine in the universe. In her works, she creates a captivating connection between abstract elements and surrealist motifs that transports the viewer into a world of dreams and emotions. Carina Martins’ artworks are not only visual masterpieces but also a source of inspiration and reflection. Her unique perspective on nature and the feminine power enriches the world of contemporary art.
