Wayne A. Robbins “Wood was one of the first sculpture mediums and is still chosen for its form, texture and warmth. Robbins’ appreciation of the innate beauty of wood helps him design pieces that maximize the beauty and grace of both the medium and the subject. He chooses from a variety of native and exotic woods. By selecting a wood that complements his subject, a synergy results that informs and guides his creative process. For finishes, Robbins uses various combinations of oils and waxes to give the sculpture that “almost wet” look as well as a feeling that is silky-smooth to touch. He welcomes admirers to touch his creations so they can experience the full sensual awareness of his art.” “’ representational style depicts the natural grace and beauty of the creatures he loves. Sculpture sizes range from two inches to four feet, in both wall mounts and freestanding compositions. Each sculpture is unique and identified for its species, numbered, dated and signed by the artist. Robbins’ work currently graces homes, boats, galleries and collections around the world. The sea’s breathtaking beauty and its infinite varieties of flora and fauna are constant reminders that we must respect and help sustain the lifeblood of our planet.Through his teaching and art, Wayne Robbins creatively seeks to share his passion for the sea and to inspire faithful stewardship of the Earth’s fragile ecosystem.” William A.

“Even when our trust is heavily placed in them, reasoning and education cannot easily prove powerful enough to bring us actually to anything unless we train to form our Soul by experience for the course on which we would set her; if we do not, when the time comes for action she will undoubtedly find herself impeded.” Michel De Montaigne Albert W.
