Born in the untamed wilds of the south coast in 1981, Robin grew up dreaming of being an artist. They were the eldest of two siblings to a single parent family on a run-down council estate on the outskirts of Portsmouth.
They had a challenging childhood, and target of many a school bully, things were difficult at the best of time for Robin, but they plodded on with plans to study art.

Jump forward to 2024.
Robin found themselves picking up a pen again for the first time decades, and through the practice of art, reclaimed a part of themselves long thought lost.
Through daily practice and the healing power of art, Robin has slowly rebuilt their confidence and personhood, finding their true voice through a range of mediums and styles.
Robin has earned the playful moniker of "the printer" in the twitch art community for sketching large and expressive portraits in a speedy-fashion.Â
Robin works primarily with Marker and fine liners, but also plays with acrylics and watercolour.
