"I lived life in black and white until I realized that the world is full of color."

-Robin Hill

Jazz Man (2016)

       Robin Hill is an artist with many goals, hurdles, and accomplishments throughout her 33 years on this earth. She has spent most of her life refining her artistic skillsets to bring herself and others happiness, understanding, and meaning through a multitude of different artistic media.

       For her, art is a therapeutic passion that she’s utilized for years. Her affinity for art can be traced back to her childhood, where she spent a significant amount of time drawing, writing, and playing music. Visually, Robin has worked with a great deal of artistic media including but not limited to: Pencil, Ink, Acrylic, Charcoal, Watercolor, Colored Pencil, Paper Clay, linoleum, and Digital Art Programs. She is not only a multimedia visual artist, but is also a multi-instrumentalist. She plays an array of different instruments including; Alto Saxophone, Keyboard, Tin Whistle, Kalimba, Drums and Otamatone. She also has an affinity for writing, video creation, dancing and hula hooping, as well as fitness and comedy. 

       Robin attended Pensacola State College for a General Arts degree (A.A) and has completed all core art classes. Her ultimate dream is to inspire others with her artwork and educate the public on mental and physical health through various art media. Art has helped her cope with a tremendous amount of adversity throughout her life and she wishes to share her knowledge with those who can benefit from learning a creative outlet. "Sharing the immense mental and physical health benefits of the arts is my true goal in life." Robin states. "With art being such a massive catalyst for my own mental and physical health recovery, I feel it's in my best interest to share techniques with others to make the world a better, happier place."

       One of her objectives in life includes educating and raising mental health awareness through her artwork. In 2017, she created a series of illustrations titled "The Break Down" after she suffered a severe mental collapse in 2016. With each picture, she provides descriptive information on symptoms related to mental illness. One of her objectives is to display this series for the public and provide commentary of each piece in the form of a free seminar. She wishes to convey an understanding of mental illness, individual circumstance, and the negative impacts of trauma and stigmatization

      While she devotes much of her time to artistic endeavors, she also enjoys spending her time volunteering in the community in a variety of different ways. She has hosted and volunteered for multiple park cleanups while living outside of Pensacola, Florida and has spent time volunteering in the local animal shelters within the Escambia County Area. Robin is an animal, mental health, and art advocate who wishes to utilize her art skills to make the world a better place.
