Nina Yocom was born and raised in suburban Philadelphia. Her earliest exposure to fine art was when her mother volunteered in public elementary schools with a program called "Art Goes to School." This innovative program exposed her to a variety of artists and their work, along with an understanding of the color wheel and how colors work together. Her father, an award-winning photographer, also influenced her own lens. This background, along with a liberal arts education, cultivated an appreciation for how art is a conduit of connection. As a newer artist in her mid-50s, Nina feels that she is making a radical re-discovery of self, enhanced by the act of creating.
