"We love our painting! I love the colors, the moodiness, and the serenity it exudes! You nailed it. It looks and feels perfect. I'm gushing -- I know, but I wanted it to move the soul when you see it, and it does! It's taken the room from beautiful to exquisite. May God bless you, you have a gift."

ABOUT NADIA J ART
|
My name is Nadia Janjua, and I am an Architect, Visual Artist and Art Educator residing in Maryland. I was born and raised in the tranquil, quiet mountains of Western Maryland with my three siblings. My parents are originally from Pakistan & Kashmir, and throughout my life, I have enjoyed a generous bit of traveling to other parts of the world which has brought a deep appreciation for culture, religion, history, and of course, art! I have always loved drawing since the tender age of three, but one fortuitous evening when I was 16 years old, I came across the “Bob Ross” show on PBS — and after that, my life was forever changed!
Picking up a paint brush at the age of sixteen, I felt connected to my voice in a way I had never experienced. As a quiet person, I had always had an active inner life, but now I had discovered a way to express and articulate my life’s experiences through colors. I realized that colors truly challenge language to encompass them — in other words, there are more sensations we feel from color, than words to describe them. I truly believe that within every color, lays a story and an experience waiting to be unraveled. This, precisely, is what my art work is all about. I am deeply inspired by my spiritual and emotional connection to my faith, and it is the search for insight and understanding that has led to an infinite source of inspiration for my creative works. I deeply love color; I love texture; I love materiality; I love up-cycling found objects, and I love writing. All of that love gets poured into each and every one of my works. Read More |
