August - 2008
"Jo Robinson, presents small collection of sculpture and paintings in
The Art House Gallery for the month of August, 2008."
Relatively new to the area,
internationally known sculptor/painter, Jo Robinson, presents a
small collection of sculpture and paintings in The Art House for the
month of August, 2008.
"Solid acrylic is an exciting material to work with and a delight to
view in home or office. These acrylic sculptures are best shown with
a light source above or below since light follows the cut edges .
The pastel/tissue collage paintings are subtly different from
direct painting and offer layers to the viewer. For this show I
concentrated on the figure, however, I feel the combination of
tissue with pastel fun with any subject.
I hope you enjoy these works as much as I enjoyed creating them."
