Robin’s work is an expression of her own personal life experiences. A native Houstonian and historical building enthusiast with a background in interior design, she enjoys implementing local architecture, specializing in Art Deco.

Lilli Lehtonen Jewelry
I’m a storyteller with my jewelry. It can be a story of a painting which I saw, bird in a nature or at the sea, flowers in the garden, etc. Anything which I saw and fell in love with. I use different techniques in my work but my specialty is filigree.
Jenn Bianco
I am based in Houston, TX with Austin roots. I have evolved in my artistic approach, driven by shifts in frame of mind through life’s challenges and joys. My creative process does not always begin with a vision, but instead an experience in mind. My profession is highly technical and I am a mother of young twin boys, so my art allows me to escape a sometimes regimented and stressful life to expose my multi-faceted self – sophistication with a hint of chaos and a pop of vibrancy.

Jenn Bianco is a Houston based artist with Austin roots. She has evolved in her artistic approach, driven by shifts in frame of mind through life’s challenges and joys. Growing up in Austin she was passionate about art and had numerous creative outlets, from singing in bands, to throwing pottery and various creative projects that she would immerse herself in. Jenn would go on to study accounting at the University of Texas at Austin and would later become a Certified Public Accountant at a big four accounting firm. Jenn has always been academically driven and competitive, and sometimes struggled to allow herself to explore her artistic passions. While Jenn has painted for over 10 years, her artistic aspirations have quite often stood in the shadows of her professionalobligations. When she and her husband had their amazing identical twin boys she felt there simply wasn’t enough ‘room’ in her life for art.
While working from home and caring for her family during the pandemic, she could no longer suppress the need to express herself through art. Jenn found herself pouring her heart and soul into abstract expressionism, experimenting with different acrylic mediums, spray paint and drip/pour techniques. She couldn’t get the ideas and visions out quickly enough and in just under 5 months found herself with a collection of over 20 pieces, ready and eager to commercialize her passion. Her supportive husband, Lenny, even took on a newfound hobby of his own, making custom wood frames for her pieces to compliment her bold and commanding artwork.
Jenn’s artwork allows her to escape a sometimes regimented and stressful life to expose her multi-faceted self that has always been there and now refuses to hide. She shows her authentic self through her painting; sophistication with a hint of chaos and a pop of vibrancy.
