Short Bio
Residing in Knoxville, Robin paints landscapes, street scenes and florals, and always looking for something to create.
Statement
Always a work in progree, I paint for me.The image speaks to me and needs to be painted. For me, painting is capturing a moment or feeling in time and place. Preferring to paint on location in a style known as Plein Air,it is my hope to transport the viewer to my spot, to feel the wind, the smells, and the light that drew me to stop and contemplate painting. Anything may be my subject,no matter how obscure and should convey the energy and mood of the moment. Strong shapes, subtle shifts, light and shadows chorus in my head and my heart to evoke feeling with the viewer-a memory,a love, a need. a calm or a question. When one sees my finished work, its a piece of me and a peace in me. I am blessed.
