Martina Špinková

Martina Špinková studied book culture and typography at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague. She draws, paints, sews, and writes. These pages feature samples of her past and present work. She writes and illustrates books, most often for children. Occasionally, she enjoys creating one-of-a-kind books for her husband and other loved ones. She paints mostly in oils and watercolors, and prefers to draw in black. From time to time, she publishes poems or writes articles. She sometimes designs book covers, logos, and fonts. She has written many things, once even decorating a chest with letters. When there is no other option, she draws caricatures and creates banners. She makes toys and similar scary creatures, paints and sews dresses and other fabric creations, and often bakes cakes.
