Delita Martin

Master printmaker, Martin explores how women of color have traditionally been defined using a variety of mediums, including various printmaking techniques, painting, drawing, collage and hand-stitching, and even repurposing vintage jewelry into her layering process. She also uses signs, symbols, and language to tell her stories. Martin is a full-time artist with a studio in Huffman, Texas. She received a BFA in drawing from Texas Southern University and an MFA in printmaking from Perdue University. Formerly a member of the Fine Arts faculty at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, Martin’s work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally. She was also included in the International Review of African American Art as one of sixteen African American artists to watch who were gaining national and international attention in 2015. Her work can be found in many private, corporate, and permanent museum collections.
