Teresa Robison grew up in Oklahoma where she spent a good deal of time in the country
playing and working on her Parent's farm. The experiences she had growing up in
rural Oklahoma gave her an appreciation of the outdoors and influenced the
direction she would eventually take with her art. She began painting as a
teenager under the instruction of Richard Goetz, and oil painter working in
Oklahoma City. The two years she studied under Goetz, gave her an invaluable
foundation and love for painting and for art. She continued her art education
at Oklahoma State University while earning a Bachelors Degree in Social Science.
After graduating from college, she and her husband moved to Memphis, TN where
they are still located. Though she didn't paint much until her children were
almost grown, she always held onto her dream of becoming an artist. Now she
paints as much as she can and focuses on what she would like to accomplish as an
artist.
Teresa paints landscapes and still life in oil and acrylic. She enjoys painting
outdoors, but also paints in her studio from reference material and from life.
She usually paints from a limited palette, but enjoys experimenting with new
colors and mediums.
Teresa is a member of Memphis/Germantown Art League, Oil Painters of America,
National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society,
and Women Painters of the Southeast. She has studied with Fred Rawlinson,
Joanna Arnet, and John Potoschnick. You can see her artwork at Gallery 5 in La Maison Antiques, Memphis, TN;
