I'm Martina Stipan from Croatia. 16-year-old me started this art project not knowing when it will be finished. But I was sure of one thing, I was going to finish it, no matter what.
I started it because I needed to push myself to make more unique artworks. And this was just the perfect way to do it. It's a bitter-sweet feeling finishing this because that means I have finally imagined and created 100 artworks, but then again, I have done them all.
So, something about the last one - Farewell. I wanted to finish in a similar tone to how it started. The first artwork, Abandoned, was published on July 12, 2014, and it's still one of my favorite drawing ideas. Farewell is a really personal work of art and that's why this is really important to me.

This is how a child feels when a mother passes on and the father looks for another wife and forgets he ever had a child... Speaking from experience.
This makes me feel sad. Reminds me of my own self. My own isolation. People are so close but I keep myself at a distance.
All cut and paste photo manipulation. She is good at it. But needs to give credit to the original sources and not misslead people into thinking these are her own images created by her. Just cut and paste art with clever photoshopping.
Young artists have to be respectful and ethical if they want to be true professionals. It's more than just creating pretty pictures.

And how many times did I fail during these 4 years? Many times. I just counted 27 unpublished creative ideas that I felt weren't good enough. And failure is your best friend because you learn that you can get back up, create, and do more.
Which artworks are your favorites? Stay creative and keep dreaming wide awake!
Alone
I just found out today that my dog has terminal cancer and has to leave me soon. This is beautiful.
I am so sorry. I hope you can be there with him as he transitions, it would comfort him greatly. **Hug**

Wow! To be so talented at 16. I hope you continue to post your art in the future. I'd love to see how it evolves. You have a special talent. Thank you for sharing.
I think every artist struggles with creative block at times. I like to take breaks from art when I can't come up with an idea. Or if I really have to create something, just for a goal I set to myself, I purposely search for inspiration, whether that is from movies, music, nature, or something else. Most of my work is already inspired by personal experiences or emotions. I'd like to think that I don't have any unusual techniques, but I'm sure you can see the style I developed through my artworks.

I love the way you intertwine space, metro (urban), and mountainous environment in a single frame.
I've always looked up to Jonas De Ro, I'm nowhere near his level of technique, but his style and ideas are always amazing. Panji Andrian “panjoool” is also an artist that I look up to. I think it's hard for young artists to develop style at first, but after years of creating art, I think the artist's style is recognizable even if it's digital art.
Journey
reminds me of a Japanese anime movie "5 centimetres per second"...

The time to finish an artwork really depends on my workflow, if I have a set idea, it takes much quicker than when I'm constantly trying to find new things and ideas on how to create art. Mostly that time can take from 4 to 7 hours. I have so many artworks that I yet have to show present to galleries and have my own exhibition, so that would be one of my goals, as well as finally creating a personal art store for prints, licenses of my art.

I thought it was suppose to be the Polar Express when I first saw it.

The most painting-like photoshop of them all :) But don't get me wrong, every one of them is worth a soul

Out of all the pictures I have just dreamed over, I do think this one is my favorite. It has all the elements that I need for my soul to survive. Very large trees, Water fall and a sand bar with the water turning quiet and then there is the house that watches over all of this beautiful and peaceful piece of Heaven that I could dwell in forever.

No don't Christmas trees are very dangerous. Stay away at all costs.

this looks a lot like Game Of Thrones (King's Landing and Daenerys and her dragon) :)
I don't even watch GoT and I thought the same thing.

This one makes me think of my sobriety. Leaving all the drugs and bad memories behind and working toward a better life. It's long road but its totally worth it. 15 months and bettering myself everyday. Love and hugs to all that suffer. Always look toward a better future
I like this one the most, there is a lot to discover and I could look at it for a long time. Who lives in the tower? What is going on in the keep? A very inspiring view.

Music controlls time... ig if you think a bout it one of the more definite ways to show how we as humans have progressed through the ages is through music, from when it wasn't even a thing, to when it was tonal, and then written, and then when pythagoreas made the "perfect" chord making system, etc etc.
I guess the point of the paintings themself is showing how astonishing landscapes can be, how two seperate things (the green and the sunset; the storm and the light) are able to blend into eachother to make one landscape and make sense. I've never really thought about that before.
I like the composition of the painting, but I do have some constructive feedback if youre willing to hear it I feel like the painting doesnt blend. It feels like 3 different paintings, becuase the alteration in style. The giraffe and the sky are in a kinda of realistic style, while the forest s more stylistic, if you know what i mean. Also, the giraffe isn't being affected my the sun in the sam way as the trees, it doesnt blend. But man, you have some great talent and I wish I was as good as you ;--; alas I just don't have the time to practice. Keep it up! I love it!
Where can I buy it? Can I print it and hang on my wall? Do you sell higher resolution? My money wants to be thrown at a screen.
