I’m Julia Robinson, an artist working in soft pastel and watercolor. Much of my current work begins outside, in the places I’m most drawn to. I’ve always felt at home in the mountains and landscapes of the American West.

I’m drawn to the moments when light changes the character of a place: when reflections on water intensify, or when golden hour makes a familiar landscape feel suddenly new.

Some pieces are completed in the field, while others return with me to the studio as studies to explore further. This site is where I stash notes from the field: small records of my painting days and travels.
