Edmari Hernandez’s original place of birth is Arecibo, Puerto Rico, but she has spent most of her life in Jacksonville, Florida. She was born into an Army family, which allowed her to travel to various places such as Germany, Italy, Alaska, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida. Learning to live in a bilingual home and in a trilingual culture, she discovered at a young age that drawings were a universal visual representation of subjects that could be understood across languages and culture. She is fluent in Spanish and English. Hernandez earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of North Florida concentrating on Painting, Drawing, and Printmaking, with a minor in Art History. She is a Master of Fine Arts candidate at the University of South Carolina studying Painting and Printmaking.
