  • The Cloisters Museum in Shadow and Light Watercolor 30 x 22
    For those of us fortunate enough to live in Upper Manhattan NYC, Fort Tryon Park is our own mini Central Park and also something more. With the Cloisters Museum serving as its "castle on a hill", the Park with its lush landscaping in the same English Romantic style as Central Park, but with sweeping views of the Hudson River and the Palisades of NJ beyond, Fort Tryon Park is a place that brings out the best of us. It is a little-known gem, a neighborhood treasure that reminds us that we can daily experience renewed awe in its beauty, find calm in its idealized version of nature, delight in its wildlife, and take heart in how we and our neighbors and visitors alike smile, say hello, and find common cause in our love for the place. In the daily stresses of urban life that can sometimes bring out the worst in its residents, the Park is a place where we access a different side of life, a place we all agree that we treasure despite other disagreements. And in so doing, it is a place that prompts us to be a better, nobler version of ourselves.

  • Lady Liberty watercolor and graphite 4 x 6 I make art that highlights the resiliency and adaptability of people, nature, and New York City. My 2D art focuses on transporting paintings in watercolor – e.g. bringing the viewer to moments in the city and our natural surroundings. I use vibrant, transparent colors, always thinking about where the light drives the image. In contrast, when creating art sculptures, I focus on cuts to make shadows in alabaster, limestone, clay, and cement castings. The materials allow for elegant lines that highlight the changing fauna/flora as waters evolve.

  • TopsyTurvy 3 acrylic paint & paper on board 16 x 16 x 1.5 My process as an artist is disciplined, intellectually challenging and inquisitive, much as it had been in architectural practice. I am not obliged however, to follow the many requirements that were once necessary to create functioning buildings. Works are now fantasy environments and constructions. I create vivid, colorful abstract compositions reinterpreted from actual building groupings or from shapes that come to my imagination. The first step in the process is to sketch out ideas, which I often change as I move forward to completion. I focus on juxtaposed, overlapping shapes, receding and advancing in space. The use of acrylic paint and metallic paper lend well to sharp delineation of each element. Mounting paper on foam core board for selected portions, helps create a three dimensional illusion for the observer. I am energized and made joyful by the world I create.

  • Reverie Oil 20 x 16 x .5
    Romm's art examines the divine intelligence permeating all existence, employing a visual language rich in light, color, and symbols that transcends the mundane and draws viewers into supernatural realms. Romm's creative process-guided by intuition and experimentation-blend influences from music, poetry, and personal dreamwork to explore themes of transformation, rebirth, and transcendence. ​She often employs nature's symbols—drawing from skies, trees, water, birds, and other elements—infused with dynamic color to depict emerging forms symbolizing the union of physical (earth) and spirit (aether). These compositions blur tangible-ethereal boundaries, transforming her paintings into portals that invite exploration of mystical landscapes where sacred and surreal converge. ​ Romm’s paintings are not simply representations but invitations to connect with the deeper forces shaping existence.

  • Hemara Welcomes the day Digital Painting: Micro-Pointillism, Corel Painter 20 x 18
    As an Artist, I can weave together the threads of myth and reality while exploring the deep, multifaceted nature of the female psyche. With a unique approach that blends traditional inspiration with cutting-edge technology, My artwork serves as a bridge between the past and the present, the tangible world and the dreamlike. My pointillist pieces, created using a computer painting program, breathe life into my powerful creations, capturing the inner stories of women and the emotional landscapes they navigate. A key influence on my artwork is the traditional beauty of Japanese woodblock prints and the ethereal quality of pre-Raphaelite paintings. These historical works saturate her pieces with a sense of timelessness. Yet, my choice of a computer program as my primary art medium places me firmly in the realm of contemporary art-making. By embracing modern technology, I reinterprets these classical influences through a digital lens, creating works that feel both nostalgic and forward-thinking. At the heart of my artwork lies a fascination with the interplay of fantasy and truth. My creations speak to a realm where stories and symbols come alive, where ancient tales are reimagined through a state-of-the-art viewpoint. The result is a body of work that honors the past while challenging contemporary perceptions of femininity, identity, and self-expression. Through my art, I offer a playful yet profound exploration of the desires and dreams that shape the female experience.
