Meet Workshop Instructor and Fine Artist Romney Collins
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. ~ Pablo Picasso
Oil Painter Romney Shelton Collins is a prolific fine artist who studies and teaches her art. A native of Burke, Virginia, she credits college drawing courses with spurring her interest in painting. For two years Romney studied oil with Robert and June Anderson, international artists, in Lewisburg, West Virginia. She has also taken workshops with acclaimed painter, Daniel E. Greene. “The style of these artists is very traditional and solidly based on the principles of the European Masters,” she explains. Always dedicated to teaching, Romney plans to offer on-going workshops and classes in oil to students of all levels when her West Virginia studio is completed. Private lessons and six- week classes are available currently. University of Charleston named Romney as one of West Virginia’s top one hundred women painters. Her work is on permanent display at the university. A member of The Oil Painters of America, she is a juried artist at Tamarack. Romney lives with her husband in a restored historic home in Greenbrier County, where she exhibits and teaches art on a regular basis. During the winter months, she resides in Florida.
