Who We Are and Where We Started

 

Greg and Dilynn

For those of you who know Greg and Dilynn, you have to know that Language Art IS the two of them. It’s attractive, it’s expressive, it’s art that takes everyday objects and turns them into something beautiful and unexpected. It’s art that makes your house more of a home.

And like Greg and Dilynn, it’s subtle and then surprising. People who first see Language Art immediately have an AHA! moment when they realize they’re seeing words formed from photos of elements found in nature and architecture.

If you know Greg and Dilynn, you also have to know that they’re not the least bit interested in tooting their own horn or hearing themselves talked about in any way. One of the nicest things about the two of them is their tendency to deflect any high praise or flowery prose. Lucky for me, they let me write this blog so that I can give you all that, despite their protests.

I’m pretty sure Dilynn will read this post and say, “no, no, no – don’t take up any time talking about us!” But we all know that knowing Greg and Dilynn is essential to knowing how special Language Art, their company, is.

They’re both small town kids – grew up in Middlebury, Indiana, (population 2,956) where they still live. They knew each other in high school – in fact, Greg dated and married Dilynn’s best friend. After her death from cancer at 27, Greg was left to raise two small daughters on his own.

Dilynn similarly was raising her two boys alone after her marriage ended. Amazingly (or not so amazingly if you have Greg and Dilynn’s faith), nine years after his wife died, Greg and Dilynn married in 1995, combining their two little households to create one very loving, fun and BUSY home with Casey at 9, Trevor at 10, Andrea at 11 and Amber at 13. When I asked Dilynn what things were like in the beginning, here’s what she told me:

“We were busy! We spent the first 10 years of our marriage going to many sports events, school stuff, and just raising a family. I have always been a stay at home mom~doing crafts, being room mother, and following my children around like the paparazzi, photographing all of their events. I even did a “photo of the day” journal for 5 years (2000-2005).

“Our Children are now grown and Amber and Jason have blessed us with 2 grandchildren. Amber teaches special education at our local junior high school. They still live in Middlebury. Andrea is the production manager for Harpo radio in New York City, Trevor is a CPA for a company nearby, and Casey is in his 2nd year of Law School @ IU Bloomington.” 

So there you have it. Language Art is a business grown out of a love of family, photography, and the desire of Greg and Dilynn to build something that used their artistic talent, Greg’s engineering background, and their dedication to comfort and home. Now that you know a little more about Greg and Dilynn, want to know how the business got started? Stay tuned for our next post – I’m just getting warmed up!

    These two sound like someone who you would like to have for a next door neighbor. I am lucky enough to have one of the signs and it is the thing that draws attention to all my family pictures, catching the eye of all who come into our home. I am happy to know something about the ones who made it. Thank you.
