Born in Freeport, Texas, Robin Hazard-Bishop has always been inspired by
color as evident in her strong and vibrant paintings. A graduate
of Southern Methodist University, her fine art degree focused on painting,
drawing and printmaking.
She has exhibited throughout the U.S. and has been included in many corporate
and private collections including the American Bank in Houston and the Cancer
Treatment Center in Corpus Christi, Texas. Her drawings were featured
at the Kimbell Museum’s Creative Process - Drawing Symposium in
1983. She has also been included in the 500 Exposition in
Dallas, the Dallas Women’s Caucus for the Arts, Dallas
Life Magazine, and in many gallery exhibits. Her vibrant pastels
have been featured in solo and group exhibits at the Baum Gallery of Fine
Art at the University of Arkansas in Conway, St. Vincent Center for Women
and Children, and Garvan Woodland Gardens’ Plein Air Exhibition. Her
work is currently represented by Justus Fine Art Gallery in Hot Springs,
Arkansas.
“Living in Hot Springs is an artist’s oasis. Inspiration
surrounds me. I like to use vibrant colors and minimal shapes to express
the essence of my natural surroundings. I hope the viewers will see
what it is in nature that moves me so strongly to create each painting.”
