Robin Okun

A World of Our Own, Original Painting

2022

Artist Comments
Artist Robin Okun presents six towering figures adorned by flowery fuchsias, blues, and golds against a rich blue backdrop. They appear rooted as a unified whole in a shimmery kaleidoscope of color. "When I look at these figures I wonder if the woman with dominantly gold color was a bit of an outsider," says Robin. "She is making her way into the group or perhaps leading in some way. Including unique stories are a big part of my creative process."
