Artist Reception: "Cloud Watching" Robin Swenson

  • Anam Cara Cellars 306 N Main Street Newberg United States (map)

Discover artist Robin Swenson of McMinnville, Oregon. This is the self-taught - and very talented - Ms Swenson’s first exhibition. Meet the artist, view her stunning pieces and interpret them for yourself. Each glance reveals a different object and interpretation.

“I am an Oregon native forever being inspired by God’s creation. A friend introduced me to the acrylic pour method. Taking it a step further, I began blowing the paint on the canvas with my mouth creating more interesting designs with the “Dutch Pour” method. I loved the results, instantly and have taken over our home with these creations. Fortunately my husband wouldn’t have it any other way.

Posting my art on Facebook I had a great response from viewers and started getting comments such as, "what are you going to do with your paintings?", "You should teach a class.", "Can I buy one of these?" How could I say no! In just the few short months of my humble beginnings, I have sold paintings in Arizona, Oregon, Washington, Tennessee and New Mexico. 

To me, this method is a bit like cloud watching. Everyone sees something different and can look at the art for long periods of time. End result - peaceful, calm feelings. I love inspiring those feelings in others. Sharing my paintings is a gift I will always be grateful for.” Robin Swenson
