“My breakthrough occurred when I gave myself permission to see myself as a creative… Claiming my art as a place where rules and boundaries were negotiable and breakable opened new creative doors.”
- Roben-Marie Smith
Why do you create?
I create to express myself, to bring beauty into the world, and to tap into my wild side! Creating isn’t just something I do… it’s who I am. Art allows me to give form to my deepest feelings and ideas and share that part of myself with others.
I’m happiest in the studio, elbow-deep in stacks of paper with paint all over my hands. Making bright, bold, colorful mixed-media art lights me up inside! My art incorporates a diverse range of mediums, from vintage papers to wax crayons to pastels, into my signature layered collages and handmade art journals.
I hope this gallery of my work inspires you to play with your art, let go of rules and perfectionism, and make something beautiful today!
