Robin Maria Pedrero~Artist Profile

Robin Maria Pedrero

My profile artist this week is Orlando based artist,  Robin Maria Pedrero. She is one of my all time favorite artists and fellow uwib.  Not only because she's an extremely talented artist and can create absolutely anything she wants but she is a dynamo at art marketing as well and so generous with her time and talents. I have learned so much from her and she's directly responsible for my involvement in the uniquewomeninbusiness group that we both belong to. She'll be the first to tell you that joining this group has been one of the smartest business decision she ever made.  I would have to agree!
Two Rays of Light in the Morning
She "is listed in Florida International Magazine's 2009 Florida Artists Hall of Fame. Her artwork is in the upcoming 2011 thriller movie "Roommates".  She is an elected signature member of the Pastel Society of America. Her art is a visual journey, where she captures life and simple pleasures applying rhythmic patterns, natural forms and geometrics in translucent layers.  She responds to what catches her eyes and heart, drawing and painting with colors, shapes and lines.  Charcoal, pastel, graphite, colored pencil, ink, acrylic or oil paint are utilized on various papers, wood, or canvas.  She personifies nature through color and movement evoking moods of transition, strength, joy and serenity."
Within Sight

I agree, her work is a visual journey.  There is a mystery that is underlying in most of her work. Things are not always as they appear and there is so much more under the layers of paint or life. It's up to us to unearth the secrets.

Secret Solitary Bird

She is one of the few who have been invited to exhibit in the Berlin Orlando/Orlando Berlin Invitational Exhibition of the Orlando Museum of Art on February 3, 2011.  I know it's well deserved and that she's so excited to be visiting Berlin for this show.

Check out her etsy shop for originals, prints, and other items.
