'The art making process enhances my life and brings me into a more peaceful, meditative place. When I paint, I detach from my surroundings and get lost in the flow of the creative process. Rather than fight with the paint to control it, I respond to the watercolor washes and markings and embrace the translucent qualities of the medium.

'Years of studying watercolor technique has also lead me to the study of Buddhism, Asian art and Sumi-e ink painting. My current body of work reflects and illustrates my desire to find serenity in not just the act of painting but also the end result, the finished artwork. Lush, pure colors combined with simplified shapes create an impressionistic balance in each of my works. My most successful paintings draw the viewer into the feeling I have created and a shared communication develops between us.'

Robin is involved in various art organizations on the North Shore of Boston and has several galleries representing her. Children’s Hospital in Boston and Newton-Wellesley Hospital in Newton have purchased numerous pieces of her artwork for their permanent collections. Her artwork contributes to the peaceful environment these hospitals strive to create for their patients and visitors.

Robin teaches watercolor workshops in the Continuing Education department at Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, Ma. and offers private and semi-private lessons at her studio in Lynn, Ma. She is also available to do demonstrations of her art techniques upon request. She has a BA in Art History from Vanderbilt University and will have her Masters of Education in Arts and Learning from Endicott College in May 2010. She can be contacted at robin@fineartbyrobin.com.
