J.J. Martyn is a house portrait expert, printmaker and mixed media artist. Holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Printmaking and Photography from Mount Allison University in New Brunswick, she brings a thoughtful and exploratory approach to her work, blending traditional printmaking techniques with contemporary methods to create pieces that are both visually engaging and deeply personal.

Her creative practice is driven by a deep love for making. Whether it’s through ink, paint, or stitch, she finds joy in the process itself—constantly experimenting and pushing boundaries with new methods and materials. Her hands are always engaged in creation, and this constant exploration fuels her art, which can be found in private collections across Canada and Europe.

Beyond her personal practice, J.J. is passionate about teaching and encourages her students to embrace the joy of creative exploration and to “Make their Mark,” fostering an environment where imagination and experimentation are at the heart of the artistic journey. Her workshops inspire creativity and confidence through hands-on exploration of printmaking techniques.
