Nada Romanos Abizaid was born and raised in Beirut, Lebanon, and is currently living in McLean, VA. She earned a BFA in Graphic Design from the Corcoran School of Art in Washington DC, and was presented with The Sophie Z. Winston Award for Excellence in Graphic Design. Working thereafter as a graphic designer in Beirut, her focus was primarily on corporate identity, print design and packaging. She designed two banknotes in circulation in Lebanon since 1994. 

Her passion for working with clay started in 2002 and she has since then continuously grown as an artist through education, mentorship and workshops.

Initially, her style in ceramics was influenced by her training as a graphic designer and depicted clean lines, slabs, and geometric shape inspired murals, at times incorporating metal to the artwork. Since moving to the US she has been drawn to observing nature on the East Coast and in the West, exploring nature reserves, hiking in aspen groves, and enjoying winter scenes. Her appreciation for nature's organic and ever-changing state and seasonal mutation led to a less structured artistic expression and the creation of stoneware sculptural nature inspired forms. Nada is an active participant in regional and national art exhibits and has received awards for her ceramics artworks.
