Romaine was born in South Africa, lived her formative years in Australia and came to the United States after college to enter the French Fashion Academy in New York. Romaine traveled for ten weeks in Asia
(5 countries) studying textile design to enhance her knowledge for a career in
Fashion Design. Romaine studied painting at college in Perth, Western Australia and had a one woman solo show of drawings and paintings at eighteen years old. The Lord Mayor of Perth, Sir Thomas Wardle opened the exhibition and bought a painting of flowers for his offices at Council House.
Romaine has taken on Abstract Expressionism to bring an understanding of a visual communication with an
internal human element of emotional energy and spirituality of nature. These works are in touch with the world globally. .
Romaine works with oils, acrylics and other mixed media to integrate the textures and line symbols used to create an aesthetic balance of land and water. Romaine has soloed many times in a Cessna150 to understand aerial views of the landforms and incorporate her knowledge in her paintings.
Romaine has shown her paintings in Australia, Texas, West Virginia, Maryland and Florida.
Work is characterized by a strong dependence on what appears to be accidental or by chance but is actually highly planned.
I am personally concerned with adopting a peaceful, mystical approach to a purely, abstract image. The spontaneity of the approach can draw from the creativity of the unconscious mind. The excessive method of painting is often considered as important as the painting itself.

My paintings show bold contrasts and a dynamic balance between restrained and boldly gestural brushstrokes and palette knife. They reflect not only a dialogue , philosophy and a contemporary thinking but also a considered engagement with autobiographical content, contemporary events and the essential human conditions of life.
