Tarman's Background

Picture
Tarman is a professional oil painter that studied with master painters Jove Wang and Corinne Harley before going off on her own. Her artwork, seen in notable places like The LA Times and John Wayne Airport, is about daring, dreaming and discovery. For her, butterflies symbolize dreams, astronauts embody daring exploration and curiosity, and planets represents discovery. She uses oil paint with luminous, glowing colors and reimagines reality into something unique.


Growing up, Tarman was the kid who preferred staying inside to draw over outdoor play, and was known as "the good artist" in grammar school. Her passion for art led her to a design degree at Cal State Fullerton, and post-graduation, she ventured into entrepreneurship. She ran a successful design firm for over fifteen years, bringing designs to corporate clients. Now living in Huntington Beach, California with her spouse, son, and their French Bulldog, Tarman dedicates her days to her passion: creating captivating oil paintings in her studio, continuing to explore and share her vision of freedom, curiosity, and discovery.
