Portola Art Gallery Presents "Around the World"-- An Exhibition of Watercolor with Pastel paintings by Bay Area artist Robin Scholl. This exhibition features a wide range of landscapes, each beautifully depicted by the artist. The diversity of the work reflects how scenes from around the world have shaped and inspired her creative process. Using an unusual mixed media technique of watercolor and pastel, Robin creates vibrant color palettes and dynamic compositions. Viewers are invited to share her passion for travel and embark on a visual excursion through these radiant works of art.
Robin is inspired by color, by ever-changing light, and the profound depth of the Earth's landscape. The inspiration for the work in this show stems from her frequent travel abroad beginning more than 35 years ago. Even then, she carried a large and heavy Minolta camera along with several lenses, coming home with countless scenes to explore later in her studio. Capturing the light and color of different countries around the globe has been a continual source of inspiration for her work.
She hopes viewers feel excited by the incredible variety of scenes one can experience when traveling to other countries. The light is different. The architecture is different. The colors are different. And the people are wonderfully welcoming. We live on a gorgeous planet, and she feels very lucky to have been able to paint it from her own viewpoint.
A reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, April 11, from 1:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M. Visitors can also meet Robin at the gallery on Tuesday, April 14 and by appointment.
