Connie Robbins
Drawing/Painting
Connie Robbins has been an artist for over 40 years and has a Masters in Teaching. She was born and raised in Burns, Oregon. She credits her artistic influences to her mother and paternal grandmother who took the time to show her and her twin sister the importance of creating and showing art, respectively. Over the years, Robbins has practiced all gambits of art including graphic design, fine arts including classical drawing, sculpture, collage, airbrush, oils, acrylic and painting. Her multi-faceted talents have won awards for commissioned airbrushed cars to having her work featured on the cover of the International magazine, The Batik Guild. Currently, her medium of choice is Batik Wax and Watercolor.
Connie’s work is painted on a fiber paper such as unryu and goya papers using watercolor. She uses wax as a resistant within the painting and throughout using a batik technique to create an aged look to her work. Due to the delicacy of the paper and the translucency the wax creates, it is mounted on white backing and then framed.
