Hi, I’m c. martins. I’ve published two poetry books, Empty Your Cup and Hourglass, which explore themes of time, memory, and identity. My poetry is shaped by my experiences living in three countries. I have a background in psychology, and I’m drawn to meaningful moments in everyday life.

 

I also create illustrations based on my poetry and design T-shirts that pair my verses with either hand-drawn artwork or original travel photos. It’s a way of blending the art forms I love into something tangible.

 

In addition to my artistic pursuits, I work as an editor. I believe poetry, like good editing, is about refining ideas to their most impactful form.

 

Thanks for visiting my site. I hope something here resonates with you.
