About the Artist

WANDA ROBINSON
ARTIST STATEMENT
I started painting later in life, after years of thinking of myself as creative but never quite daring enough to call myself an artist. Once I finally picked up a paintbrush though, I was hooked.
I'm a self-taught artist living and painting in North Carolina, and my work is inspired by the beauty I find in nature and those ordinary little everyday scenes that deserve a second look.
I love color. I love loose, expressive brushstrokes, layers of paint, bits of texture, and the unexpected marks that happen when I stop trying to make everything perfect. My paintings aren't meant to be exact representations of what I see. I'm much more interested in capturing the feeling of something -- the joy of a bunch of flowers, a bird in flight, salty breezes, or the way certain colors simply make you happy.
Painting has also taught me something I didn't expect: creativity doesn't have an expiration date. I'm still learning, experimenting, changing my mind, and discovering new things I want to paint. I hope I never stop.
Most of all, I want to create art that feels joyful, warm and approachable -- the kind of art you don't have to understand or analyze. You can simply love it. If one of my paintings finds its way into your home and makes you smile when you walk past it, then it has done exactly what I hoped it would do.
I'm truly grateful that you're here and especially honored when something I've created earns a place in your home. When you choose to support an independent artist, you're supporting the time, heart, experimentation and joy that goes into creating something by hand. Thank you for supporting original art and this small creative business of mine.
XO,
Wanda
