I’m a multi-directional creatrix living on an island, hovering above the chaos with a satchel of flutes on my back and spoons and chalks in my rucksack for the ‘just in case’ times. Art, music, nature, and the spirit of things tapped me into life, joy, and my truest self at a very young age. Painting has been my primary medium but I’ve also enjoyed making music, costumes, doing art performances, writing, mask making, and exploring other mediums. My art speaks for me and is a form of sacred medicine that transcends verbal language. I want people to feel the art rather than try to analyze it with words. By turning to my art to understand my deeply personal human experience, I hope to reveal universal narratives that connect us all. The life-changing strokes I had in 2022 caused me to approach the creative mediums I’ve used over the years with fresh eyes. The Muse alters course but is never very far away.
Aside from my art, I am a nature lover, a tarot card reader, and a shamanic practitioner. With great respect for the earth and all of its inhabitants, I honor the interdependent web of all existence and do my best to walk in balance and with gratitude. When it’s time for me to leave this life, I would love for the world to have been made a little bit better because I was here.
Peace to all,
Robyn
P.S. For those who wonder (and for the many who have asked or think about asking), the answer is, “Yes, Bellospirito is my real name.”
