A self-taught artist, Tina Meetran was born in Providence, RI where she currently still lives and works. She was first introduced to visual arts in high school through a local non-profit organization – New Urban Arts. It was here that she was able to explore photography, acrylic painting, watercolor painting, and mixed media. She fell in love with the way that colors were mixed, made, and danced across a page or canvas. Tina mostly paints with watercolors and acrylics, using nature, plants, and florals as her main subjects. She now has expanded to work with digital illustration and aspires to increase representation for communities of color in mainstream visual media – especially for our younger generations.
