First Friday Art Walk with Live Painting by Robin Makowski

Specializing in watercolor, Robin focuses on nature for her subjects, but is inspired by anything “with the right light and lots of color.”  Working exclusively from her own original concepts, she captures nuance and personality in all of her work.

Her current series, Happy Hour, is a “spirited celebration of our cocktail culture.” Illustration and writing have been means of creative expression for this artist, as well. Not only has Robin illustrated more than thirty published children’s books, but she also authored half of them. Her illustrations have appeared in publications such as National Geographic Magazine, The Cousteau Society’s Dolphin Log, Surfer, and New Yorker Magazines.
