About Me
Hi — I’m Robin!
My initial memories of Art crossing the line from creativity to therapeutic lie in my elementary years. As the oldest of three sisters, in a home experiencing shifts, there was always an obstacle to overcome.
I recall stick figures and small childish drawings of horses and trees in a patterned journal our parents purchased from Guatemala. I would pass the journal back and forth between the crack of the wall and bunk-bed to my sister up above. Life was always noisy - but artistically flowing conversations post lights out brought peace and connection.
As I became a teenager I recall perching myself beside the sliding glass door in my childhood home with just a stack of printer paper and a battered marker — writing, a new form of art. “Thrive Thrive Thrive…” “Endure Endure Endure…” Repeatedly until the curves seamlessly wove together.
I often dreamt that one day the illustrations might become something meaningful or better yet the name of my future business. The letters and spelling, themselves — became a vast escape.
