About me

Gender Female
Industry Arts
Occupation artist/teacher
Location Chicago, IL
Introduction I have lived in the Chicago area all my life. I have been an artist for as long as I can remember and it is all I ever wanted to do. I married and raised my children and then went back to school to earn two degrees in studio practice: a master of science (M.S.) and a master of fine art (M.F.A.) I am a signature member of the Watercolor USA Honor Society. I make art in my studio in addition to teaching at my local community college and giving workshops and critiques. To purchase art work or to arrange a workshop for your organization, send me an e-mail. ALL IMAGES ©DAVIDA SCHULMAN 1996-PRESENT. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
