Ninette Deliyannides

Started in Seattle, Washington and transplanted to South Bend, Indiana. Ninette has spent years exploring, playing, and expressing interactions with the natural world. She is fascinated by the secrets of reflections, the decay of the natural, the joy of color, and the strength of resists. These interests create innumerable possibilities of medium, so she play in as many as she can: watercolor, oil, acrylic paintings on canvas, shoes, clothing, furniture, etc.; natural and synthetic textile dyes and resists; photography, pencil, printmaking, color pencil, charcoal, and more.
