Yadi

Fine Art Artist

Yadi is a self-instructed, internationally known fine art artist, published author and computer scientist. Best known as ‘Yadi’, residing in Evanston, Illinois, she is an (IAC) Illinois Art Council grant recipient, has sold hundreds of paintings to private patrons and has been commissioned for several public, corporate and residential artworks. She is also a teaching artist, traveling throughout Chicago Public Schools and Northshore for Art Encounter of Evanston.

Yadi has a passion for texture and mixing media, as she often practiced in her work. The risk of mixing materials that might not otherwise be considered companions is the greatest challenge in my work. She works in series because it is most representative of the various phases of her spiritual and personal evolution.

She has appeared in several publications, such as the Food Arts Magazine for her 4’ x 6’ Cheese Mosaic; Union Times and Quest Warsaw/Winona Lake for her mosaic sculpture work on the Peace Sundial Mosaic. Winner of Best of America Mixed Media, her work was published in the America Mixed Media Artists & Artisans by Kennedy Publishing. She won the Award of Excellence at the Skokie Art Festival for her colorful Abstracts on Paper. . Yadi’s public mosaics are featured on the Mosaic Atlas (worldwide public art website), featuring public mosaic art from around the world; and published in the 2005 Mosaic Art Yearbook, in digital format.
