About Us

Working together apart – Nebraskan artists

Tia and Shaina connected over an interest of Middle-Eastern art, rhythm and music. They have spent most of their friendship in separate cities but manage to collide eventually. While continuing to evolve their respective skills, they decided to combine efforts toward ornamented stringed instruments.

Tia is an Omaha-based henna artist specializing in textile adornment. An artist since childhood, she focuses on geometric designs inspired by South Asian, North African and North European motifs.
