Bio

Isabella Robynn is a 21-year-old oil painter with a focus on figurative realism. While growing up in the small town of Woodland Washington, art became her passion. Throughout her childhood, she taught herself how to draw and paint, and her love of art inspired her to pursue it as a career. She went on to graduate with her BA and her BFA in Studio Art from Western Washington University in 2023. During her time there, she studied abroad at the Moulin à Nef VCCA artist residency in Southern France. Currently, she is in the process of completing her Master in Fine Art degree at the California Institute of the Arts.
