behind LINED WITH SILVER
meet neda kerendian
The name Lined With Silver bloomed out of Neda’s everlasting positive outlook.
It gained new meaning in March of 2021 when she underwent an 11-hour jaw surgery that granted her the ability to exist with newfound ease.
The surgery involved implanting a chromium cobalt jaw joint, which also means she is quite literally lined with silver.

Neda was born with hemifacial microsomia, which left her jaw and bite misaligned and not sustainable for long-term health. After surgery, she was able to experience what life is like to exist with an aligned, functioning jaw. This gave her the ability to see that prior to surgery, she had been living with a long list of subconscious stressors chipping away at her capacity. The biggest being that she was never able to take a relaxed, deep, and calming breath.
Her experiences throughout life so far have led her to seek out and share grounding, wholeness, and simple ease through art, mindfulness, poetry, and creativity. She’s heavily inspired by the human desire to inevitably return to simplicity amongst the stress of daily life.
In addition to creating art and interactive books to guide others to find calm, she’s passionate about supporting creatives throughout the often windy road of bringing their creative visions to life.
Neda is an artist and writer based in Los Angeles, CA. She received her Bachelors in Studio Art and has been creating artwork and has worked with a number of small businesses since 2017.
