NYS Certified Visual Art Teacher
ROBIN WEISS
Welcome
I have always known that I wanted to make the arts an essential component of my life. Fortunately, I have found ways to successfully build my career around both creating art and helping others find their inner artist!
After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts, I spent 10 years employed in the business end of the fashion and home furnishings industries. When a friend asked me to paint a mural in her nursery in 2000, my custom mural business was born. In 2005, I discovered a new passion – working with children. I became a New York State Certified Visual Arts teacher, and have been teaching in schools, camps and enrichment programs ever since. What I enjoy most about teaching is witnessing the joy of discovery in my students!

What People Are Saying
A giant thank you again for your amazing mural. Due to your artistry, creativity & imagination, you’ve transformed baby. Schwartz’s nursery into such a cheery, delightful, happy place.
It reminds oneself of walking through a beautiful garden trellis. All of our friends enjoy seeing something so unique. We can’t wait until our next project when we again will be calling Robin. Thanks again.
Can I tell you how much we LOVE the mural?? It is absolutely wonderful – the colors are fabulous and I am a major fan of the details. And thank you so much for your creative ideas.
The log cabin is so realistic, it’s like a getaway retreat within my own home.
We absolutely love Allison’s room. Great job!
I love it more each day! Thanks for such a terrific job. I’ll be in touch for my next project.
Working with Robin was a real pleasure. I did not know what exactly I wanted my daughter’s bureau to look like. Robin was able to spend the time with me to create this beautiful piece of furniture that is a wonderful focal point in her room.
