"My parents were very encouraging from the start," Martinez told Billboard while exploring her artistic roots. "My dad always wanted to learn how to play guitar and never got around to it, so when I showed interest in music he got me a guitar and I taught myself by looking up chord diagrams online & through YouTube tutorials. My mother always encouraged me to write poetry, paint, or take photographs. I think that’s why I became so obsessed with art and music because it was all I did. I was able to play electric guitar all night till 6 in the morning if I wanted to because my parents understood inspiration strikes at different times for different people."
