Hello Friend!

I’m Sema Martin.

I’m an artist, mum, author, self-taught color pencil artist, and creative entrepreneur with a passion for pet portraits.

From NASA Engineer to award-winning artist, I have created over 280 stunning pet portraits for clients all around the world and now I want to share my years of knowledge with all artists that want it! My goal, to erase the stereotype of the starving artist! We can make money doing what we love and I really want to show you how!

I can help because I’ve been there.

Eight Years ago

I started drawing pets.

I had no experience selling my art and without knowing it I had launched an entire career that has kept me and mine, clothed and fed for nearly a decade. I have been obsessed with all things business and selling art since. Fast forward to today I have written 2 books, 3 workbooks, built a NEW business dedicated to artists (Learn My Craft), and helped THOUSANDS of artists sell their work and even go full-time.

Ready to kickstart your creative career? I've got your back!
