Celebrity TV host, artist and businesswoman Aliia Roza, artist and painter Becky Robbins, and CEO and co-founder of 24Fashion TV Victoria Unikel
For the last decade, the self-taught artist has poured her time and energy into crafting oil paintings that intricately weave together her past and present. Organic in practice, nothing is planned when Robbins stands before a blank canvas to paint; though, she often splashes canvases with images of human faces, animals, flora, fauna, and texts that showcase her love of Earth and humanity.
Robbins typically starts with one thought an inspiration from a photograph she took or saw in a magazine, or something that came to her during daily morning meditation and that one concept leads to another and another. She connects individual images through ropes or a string of music notes so that each piece feels cohesive. The entire process can take Robbins anywhere from six months to a year to finish an original painting. Through her work, she has been able to build relationships with people around the world, even during a pandemic.
Robbins most recent collection is titled Ygen, a concept that is at the core of the appreciation of beauty and art in Japan. Pieces in the collection include the PALE BLUE DOT, referencing our journey on this tiny planet; LEAP OF FAITH, which revolves around taking risks; and LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER, which was inspired by a Jason Mraz song. In addition to her originals on oil, Robbins is selling limited edition prints which are beautifully floated on a background and framed.
