Dina Jadallah-Taschler is a full-time, self-taught artist. In 1987, she attended Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., where she earned a Bachelor's degree in political science and a Master's degree in Arab studies. She then attended the University of Chicago for a Ph.D. in political science and completed everything but the doctoral dissertation.
Moving west led to the fortuitous discovery of a whole new world of art that derives its inspiration from the western landscape, light and indigenous architecture. It changed her career path for good. Painting allows her to visually narrate and creatively share the beauty of the West and Southwest. She lives in Newport Beach with her husband and German Shorthaired Pointer.
Dina paints both en plein air and in the studio. She is a member of the Southern California Plein Air Painters Association (SOCALPAPA) and American Women Artists.
