Welcome!
Robin Maxon
BIOGRAPHY: Watercolor artist, Robin Maxon began exploring watercolor nearly 30 years ago. She has lived in St. Joseph, Michigan for 41 years and draws inspiration from this beautiful Lake Michigan town. Some of her favorite subjects come from the coastline and nature centers in and around her community. Her graphic design background has influenced her style to have an illustrative component with more emphasis on realism. Her work can be found in Chartreuse Art Gallery in St. Joseph and in Mr. Miller's Art Emporium in Douglas, Michigan as well as in homes and businesses around the country. She is a member of the Michigan Watercolor Society, Krasl Art Center, and Berrien Artist Guild. ARTIST STATEMENT: It seems the desire to make art is an innate quality of many artists that find it just necessary to create. If you're lucky, you'll have people in your life who encourage, nurture and facilitate this desire. Ultimately, watercolor is where I landed. I work from photographs and enjoy the process of creating a composition. These works reflect a wide range of subjects that I am attracted to. I never know where inspiration will come from, but am always on the lookout. In the meantime, I continue to challenge myself with detailed subjects while trying to capture the play of light and the nuances of color in something common, natural or unexpected. Please take a look around. Just click an image to see the full view. You'll notice that I've grouped similar themed paintings together for easier navigation. Each image caption includes the title, dimensions and price. Most have standard size, frame-ready prints available and some can be custom sized or printed on canvas. I also paint commissions. Please see a variety of pet portraits, children, adults and homes under Commissions. I can work from your quality photo. I recommend a high resolution photo with a nice light source. Please contact me for pricing and details. |
