Biography

Hello! My name is Mrs. Roman. I am passionate about art education and have over 10 years of field-related experience. After receiving my B.F.A. in painting & drawing in New York, I returned to my hometown in Evanston, IL to work as a community center Arts Instructor. Since then, I have sought to make the arts more accessible to everyone. I believe that every child is an artist and art enhances all learning experiences. Through teaching I can help everyone create, present, respond, and connect to art! My favorite medium to work with is paint, and I mostly paint "en plein air," which means "in the open air." I love to paint scenes in nature. I also enjoy printmaking, collage, photography, sculpture, illustration, and digital media. Outside of teaching and making art, I enjoy cooking, practicing yoga, and spending quality time with my family. I currently live in Evanston with my family.
