Artist's Bio
Wanda Robinson is a North Carolina-based acrylic painter, best known for her soft, atmospheric coastal landscapes. Her work exhibits an impressionist style that focuses less on details and more on the relationship between color and light, and how much joy there is in just painting from the heart. She draws much of her artistic inspiration from her coastal roots, the natural beauty of the outdoors and the joy of everyday life.
​
Wanda is a self-taught artist and has exhibited her paintings in galleries and shows across the mid-Atlantic. Since picking up her first paint brush in 2021, her art has found its way into homes of collectors in Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia.

Artist's Statement
The sights, sounds and salty breezes of my coastal beginnings have always been a big part of who I am, and if you told my younger self that one day I'd be turning my love for coastal life into art, she'd be over the moon. The ocean is like a lifelong friend -- calming, inspiring and always there when I need it.
​
Painting is my way of saying thank you -- for where I've been, where I am and for what the ocean and its salty serenity has given me. I'm drawn to light, color and the little details that bring a moment to life. My hope is that each piece I create brings a bit of that feeling to you too -- whether it sparks a sweet memory or simply adds a little extra joy and beauty to your space.
