Collector Quotes and Letters                                        Back Next

Greetings Robin,

I wanted to let you know my dad's reaction to his gift.

..... when he opened the portrait of himself as a young sailor, his eyes filled with tears and we all could tell he was really fighting openly weeping. My dad is not an emotional person and although he

 was surrounded by family all day for his 80th, he remained emotionally intact until he saw the portrait. He was completely taken by surprise and overwhelmed.

Thanks so much for a job well done.

Michele

 

Collectors have many special requests; I was first asked to create a portrait of a collector's son similar to one that the father had of himself as a child, then the family continued to grow and they have established a family tradition that will be cherished for generations

  "Robin created beautiful portraits of our three children; each drawn between ages four and five.  Now with our daughter's picture completed we have the full set.  Robin captured her likeness and her sparkle.  These are portraits we will always treasure."

"...magical use of color" Jeffrey Spalding, Director and Chief Curator, Art Gallery of Nova Scotia    
"The images are so captivating  - whimsical yet they resonate with emotion." -

"Otherworldly, but at the same time reminiscent of Florida's breathtaking sunsets."

"I received the portrait and we are all pleased you did a fantastic job.
I would recommend your work to everyone.
Thank you so much for your compassion that came out in the portrait.
