Bio:

Gergana Horozova is a Bulgarian-born painter and art educator based in Orland Park, Illinois. She teaches art in LaGrange, Orland Park, Riverside, and Romeoville, where she shares her passion for creativity, color, and self-expression with students of all ages.

Since graduating from the Illinois Institute of Technology in 2010, Gergana has been recognized for her accomplishments by private art collectors and patrons, and was recently awarded the Luxembourg Art Merit Recognition. Her dual roles as artist and educator are deeply connected—each informs and enriches the other.

Influenced by the work of Delaunay, Macke, Cézanne, Matisse, Picasso, Miró, Seurat, and other twentieth-century masters, Gergana brings a love of color, form, and emotional honesty into both her paintings and her teaching. “Their masterpieces,” she says, “have inspired my own exploration of emotional vibrations through color and movement.”

In her creative practice, Gergana views painting as a way to “recalibrate, defragment, and liberate” personal experience—translating emotion into visual language. She encourages her students to do the same: to see art as a journey of discovery, reflection, and truth.
