Robin
has an enormous love of animals and nature that is evident in her illustrations. She currently resides at Morning Star Ranch
and Gallery in picturesque Snohomesh, Washington. Not surprisingly, she and her husband, Randy live with a happy menagerie
of animals all of whom have inspired her illustrations including Mary a rescued greyhound, three cats, four horses and a flock
of pet chickens!

I was first exposed to Robin's illustrations as a child. The Serendipity books were my favorite
books to read. I remember just staring at the pictures of fanciful creatures and wishing that I could live in that world.
Robin uses bright vibrant colors and gives her illustrations a softness that I find both interesting and welcoming.
She emphasizes fun and fantasy in her work, even when illustrating real animals. Even as an adult, I still love looking at
her work. It helps me remember what it felt like as a child to imagine the world in a more beautiful and fantastic way.

The Furryeyefulls from KARTUSCH. They remind me of my family.
In addition to her illustrations, Robin has a sucsessful framing business, does custom animal
portraits and creates copper word artwork.
