There are artistic skills in ALL of us.

I believe that practice makes improvement. With time we can all develop our artistic style and voice.

I teach classes based in watercolor painting, block printing, creating/using natural pigments, drawing, and book binding. I have taught with: Bainbridge Island Museum of Art, Case for Making, Camp Craftaway, Gage Academy of Art, Kitsap Regional Library, North Seattle College (Continuing Education Department), The Works Seattle, and Wildcraft.

I have also taught youth based art classes at public schools: Hawthorne Elementary, Sandpoint Elementary, Summit Atlas, and Dry Creek Elementary in Port Angeles (in conjunction with the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center).

Feedback From Students

“There was a great balance of demonstration, individual work time and personal feedback. I feel like Robin really shows care in her interactions with students, gives great encouragement as well as generative feedback”

Student from “Watercoloring Fall Botanical” class
"Robin was great - super encouraging and gave great feedback. She was clearly very knowledgeable. Will definitely try to take more classes with her in the future."

Student from “Fungi Watercolor” class
"[My daughter] has been enjoying the class and I’ve seen her trying new things, which is great! I’m very glad that she hasn’t gone to her perfectionism/negative place in class. Thank you for a creating a safe space for the kids to explore!"

Parent from “Watercoloring the Puget Sound” class
“Every class with Robin I learn something new - how to draw, paint, sometimes fix things. Now, when I sit down and start painting, I literally visualize Robin demonstrating techniques I want to use. I finally am in control of media (well, most of the time) and don't struggle that much anymore.”

Student from “Watercoloring Spring Florals” class
“I really enjoy Robin’s teaching style. She has introduced us to new techniques each week that build on one another.”
