For her entire adult life, which frankly has not been very long, Tatiana El-Khouri has made her living off her imagination. As a painter, designer, and illustrator, this young artist has been breaking ground in whatever medium she works in. At age 21, she was a Committee Chairwoman for the Graphic Artists Guild; at 22, television personality/ supermodel Tyra Banks sponsored a gallery show of her work and featured Tatiana's art on her talk show; at 23, she became a board member of the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles; and at 25, she became a board member of the American Society of Illustrators Partnership (ASIP).
Her artistic style ranges from strong graphic illustration to whimsical paintings and collage. Tatiana's work incorporates vibrant color palettes with bold shapes and lines, as well as a loose-edged painterly technique—which adds texture and a strong emotional sense. Her body of work is eclectic and draws from her diverse background including the folk art of the African Diaspora, Mexico and the Middle East. Tatiana has shown at the Cactus Gallery, Hangar 1018 Gallery, Photographers' Gallery and CSUN West Gallery to name a few. Among her illustration and design clients are Black Entertainment Television (BET), Air Force Art Program, NAACP, Urban Ministries, Inc (UMI), B Sharp Records, ComicMix.com, and Pfizer.
Tatiana has been profiled on the Tyra Banks Show, Coin Op TV, American Superstar Magazine, ComicMix.com, and spotlighted by the Graphic Artists Guild and the Americans for the Arts. She is currently the Vice President of Development of the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles. In her spare time, Tatiana teaches art to children in hospitals and hopes to one day create her own children's art foundation.
