ABOUT
Lara Robinson is a classically trained contemporary artist based between London, Wiltshire and Cornwall. Having grown up amongst the beaches of Cornwall and the rolling hills of the countryside, Lara’s training in Florence and Barcelona means her style crosses classical training with a more individual impressionism, and imbues her work with a real sense of vibrancy and life.
Lara is particularly interested in researching Impressionism, exploring its principles of concept, composition and colour. She says of her approach “It’s all about playing to get the best result”. Producing work that is well-considered, taking decisions on representation, and finding the most interesting way to reflect her chosen subject matter is key to Lara’s practice.
