Nina Daryani Art Show: School Bus Yellow

A series of oil paintings of the iconic yellow school bus in all seasons at New Canaan Country School,  Connecticut. A year-long project by artist and school bus driver, Nina Daryanani. 

Looking for a way to support her art practice, Ridgefield artist Nina Daryanani joined First Student as a driver for NCCS in July 2023. On a whim during the last week of term in 2023, Nina painted the bus   between shifts to the delight of the students. Realizing that only a School Bus Driver can paint a School Bus, she continued to paint the bus at school capturing the changing seasons of the school year. Nina says, “It’s a unique project that has come about because of the support of First Student and the Country School in allowing me to keep the bus at the school instead of driving it back to the depot. I’m honored  to be able to have this opportunity and to have painted all year.”
