Autorenporträt

Robin Sealark graduated with a bachelor's degree in fine arts and an art education certification from Brigham Young University in 2013. She spent her undergraduate years specializing in oil painting and hyper-realistic portraiture, but shifted her focus to landscapes, seascapes, and skies over time. Growing up on Long Island and exploring Utah over the last ten years inspired her to bring dramatic natural light and beauty to her paintings. Robin has established strong followings on Instagram and YouTube, where she frequently posts her work, process videos, tips, tutorials, relatable sketches, and advice for creatives. Through her personal work and teaching, she seeks to emphasize the idyllic beauty found in all subject matter through deepened observation and a discerning artist's eye. Her shared projects and educational resources aim to create accessible paths to the basic painting and drawing techniques, materials, and tools that make creative exploration and fine art rendering available to anyone. There's no gatekeeping here! Robin believes that a healthy, creative life is something everyone can access with full breaths, positive community, art appreciation, education, and regular practice.
