Artist Rebecca Robinson lives in Knoxville, Tennessee with her mountain-loving husband, three energetic children, and one shaggy dog. A largely self-taught artist, she has always been fascinated by color and texture and has studied and practiced art independently for as long as she can remember, starting with an ever-growing collection of prints and books about the great Impressionists as a young child, and hours spent studying and drawing her neighbors’ homes.

Her paintings are heavily textured and known for a richly layered quality achieved with palette knives and brushes, with style always evolving. She believes that each layer - seen and unseen - contributes to the overall depth, weight, and composition of the finished product. Her paintings are inspired by life’s purest moments: children playing, animals grazing, southern landscapes, village life, and her own childhood spent in a small Kentucky town and “riding the range” on her grandfather’s cattle farms.
