Ina knew she wanted to be an artist the moment she could hold a pencil in her hand. She began taking art lessons at the age of 6 and continued her education throughout adulthood, taking classes and expanding her techniques, mediums, and themes.
Ina began painting children’s murals “on the side” of her career as an air quality specialist because she needed an artistic outlet. The birth of her son was the inspiration for her whimsical paintings for children. Ina wants to make kids smile and spark their imaginations. She lives in Marin County California.
