Robin Danely is an American artist who has been living and working in Oxford since 2014. She studied painting and printmaking in California in the early 2000s, and has been a professional portrait artist for the past 12 years. Robin has exhibited work internationally, including galleries in San Francisco, Kyoto, and London; she also teaches portraiture and still life painting in and around Oxford. She is motivated by a love of the paint itself, and aims to bring subjects to life through dynamic brushwork and bold colours. Robin is a curious and keen observer, a trait she channels into her work.
As an educator, Robin is enthusiastic and supportive, providing a solid technical foundation of colour theory and value analysis, then encouraging students to find their own expressive mark-making.
Robin was a participant in Sky Art’s Portrait Artist of the Year in 2023, and won first prize in the London Graphic Centre Art Prize in 2024.
