“Impressionism; it is the birth of Light in painting.” Robin draws inspiration from this quote by French artist Robert Delaunay (1885-1941).

Artist Statement

“Painting with oils on canvas is my medium of choice, and I strive to achieve impressionism through light and shadows on the canvas. I want to paint light! That is exactly what drew me into painting.”
