Robin: A Psychedelic Journey


I think sincere creative people inspire me! I do; and Robin Pedrero is one of them! An innovative and joyful person, she is inspired by what is around her, such as the garden of a friend, a walk in the forest, or the birds that come at her window. However, in her colorful depictions of nature she mixes up reality and fantasy and tries to create an imaginary world where what you see, becomes your reality.

Robin takes her fans on a true “visual journey” during which they embark and discover whimsical landscapes where she allows the paint to dictate the story told on the canvas. With her unique techniques the viewer is able to interpret the painting the way they see it. Curiosity is aroused and the longer you stare the more images are revealed; letting the story of what is seen on the canvas become your own. The subtle details appear from the back-ground into the focal point of her creation. Thus, after closer observation, one might discover a hidden stairway, an animal, or a character that one could miss at first glance.

Robin knows she is successful when her vision is able to communicate certain feelings, emotions or spark off reactions of interest or curiosity. This is what she seeks most in her work that it resonates with others. I encourage you, to take a couple minutes; let yourself be transported by Robin’s paintings and create a whole new oneiric world full of rich colors and superposition.
