The vision of painter Richard Roblin is based upon clarity and its formal articulation. As Roblin says, "To be rooted in the action of painting allows me the space to express my joy through color forms.There is a play between the action and the object that interacts with the viewer to create a new dynamic force.Just as in all natural phenomena, every action creates a reflective reaction, the painting carries an energy in its particular vision that can be engaged and expanded with each viewer’s consciousness, and can incite a variety of states of felt experience.The work becomes a communication link that may for a moment release the tensions of concepts to reveal a moment of quiet joy."
