Ariana D. Oden has been creating art for as long as she can remember—her journey began as a young girl doodling with ink pens during school lessons. While thriving in art class, her curiosity for exploring new mediums ignited a lifelong passion for discovery and experimentation. This curiosity led Ariana to develop her signature mixed-media style, combining the ink pens of her school days with premium colored pencils to craft vibrant, emotive works.

Inspired by the natural beauty of the world and the often-overlooked beauty within, Ariana’s art is a reflection of feeling. Each piece comes to life through a process she likens to magic—watching color and form emerge in real time. Through her bold use of color and attention to the unseen, Ariana’s work captures moments that speak to the soul. 

She describes herself simply: “Just a girl in love with colors.”
