About the Artist

  

Roberta Combs uses vibrant color, extreme lighting, and dramatic composition to create the impact of her realistic subject matter. Her still life paintings create an intimate view of her subject. Her portraits evoke personal emotion from their viewers. She is equally comfortable with landscape and still life subjects as she is with pastel and watercolor mediums.

“I believe artists actually see things differently than most people. There is nothing as simple as just a face or only a leaf. It’s an image entangled in light, shape, texture, color… and begs to be a captured moment.”

Roberta is a Senior Signature Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and the Northwest Pastel Society; a Master Status Pastellist in the Pastel Society of America; a Fellow Status in the Canadian Institute of Portrait Artists; and a Master Signature Artist in the Pastel Artists of Canada. Her work can be seen exhibited locally as well as in New York City, Palm Springs, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Toronto.
