Mikala Clarise Martinez is a painter born and raised in Los Angeles, California. She has recently received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Otis College of Art and Design. Her recent achievement was winning second place in the Junior art show after being physically compelled to paint using her non-dominant hand, after breaking her wrist in an accident. Martinez started with traditional acrylic paintings but has experimented with mixed media such as fabric and cardboard, adding objects on and around the canvas, and interactive art.
Martinez has participated in local art walks since 2021 and consistently works hard to expand her small business. She currently teaches art classes for the City of Carson Parks & Recreation Department for children ages seven to fifteen.
