Painting - Nonja Tiller

Nonja Tiller is an artist based in Silver Spring, MD who brings her intricate creations to life through her character and narrative-driven artwork. Nonja’s work often tells multiple stories at once. The absurdity of the human condition, whimsy of the animal kingdom, and the dangers of society are all targets for her keen sense of humor and detail - there are often surprises in the least likely places. Nonja is exceptionally driven, always working to improve her style and skills. Nonja is a resident artist at Art Enables, a non-profit art gallery and vocational arts program dedicated to creating opportunities for artists with disabilities to make, market, and earn income from their original and compelling artwork. Nonja herself is a disability rights advocate, and has published several children's picture books.
