Martyna Nowak (born 1999) is a Polish visual artist living in Torrevieja, Spain. Originally from Olkusz, she spent her childhood and youth in France, where she lived in Paris for twelve years. Her multicultural experiences, intense emotions, and strong need for self-expression permeate every work she creates.
Although she has been drawing since the age of thirteen, it was only in recent years that art became her primary career path and the foundation of her creative identity. She works primarily in acrylic and pencil, combining the raw, precise realism of figures with expressive, often symbolic backgrounds. Color and texture are a vehicle for emotion in her painting, and monochromatic silhouettes—usually human—embody hidden tensions, introspection, and what is difficult to express in words.
At the center of her explorations is the human being: their body, emotions, desires, and instincts. Martyna paints what is authentic and close to her—living beings, raw relationships, extreme states. Her work strongly emphasizes themes of emotional freedom, crossing social boundaries, and confronting one’s own truth. She is inspired by individuals who live intensely – warriors, artists, and outsiders.
In 2025, she organized her first two solo exhibitions:
– “Millennium Gladiators,” created in collaboration with the KSW federation and presented at the Real Club Náutico in Torrevieja in June 2025;
– “From Poland, from Me,” showcasing Polish folklore, roots, and the emotional landscape of her adolescence, presented in September 2025 at Rabsztyn Castle in Olkusz.
In November 2025, she participated in the international Expo Torrevieja trade fair, presenting her work to a wide industry audience.
Her paintings are held in private collections, tattoo studios, and collectors around the world.
She has been featured in Torrevieja Online, Polska Costa, Przegląd Olkuski, TVP Info, and TVP Kraków.
She is currently working on further artistic projects planned for this year, consistently developing her style and building an international presence in the art market.
For Martyna, painting is not just a medium – it is an act of psychological cleansing and inner struggle, the only space in which she can give form to what is normally silent.
Behind every collection is a creative partnership. Martyna Nowak’s work is shaped in close collaboration with Antonello Ranaldo, who curates the visual direction and digital presence of this site, drawing inspiration from the wide-open landscapes, weathered textures, and storytelling traditions of the American West and country heritage. This ongoing dialogue between painter and creative director brings a distinct narrative thread to each new body of work — one rooted in frontier spirit, rustic authenticity, and quiet grandeur.
