Simone Robinson is an undergraduate student at The Ohio State University. She was an intern with the Wexner arts center, has taught art classes at the Columbus Museum of Art, and is completing her BFA at The Ohio State University. Her preferred choice of medium is pastel and charcoal. Robinson’s future career goal is to become a Biomedical illustrator and work for the Mcgraw Hill company. The experiences she has had in the workforce has helped further her artistic career. Simone has been awarded the Jerald J. and Terri Katz Kasimov scholarship, Fergus Materials Scholarships Fund and the Undergraduate Research scholarship at the Ohio State University. She has also had work displayed at the Promenade Gallery, 934 Gallery, Ohio State Undergraduate Scholarship exhibition, Ohio Navy ROTC building, and Columbus State Community college.
Simone’s portfolio consists of work that speaks to the viewer both visually and conceptually. Her work centers around the idea of what it means to be creative outside of being comfortable. For a long time, her work was 2-dimensional, but more recently, her work includes various other forms of art making and expression. Robinson’s pieces are inspired by the knowledge she has acquired while being an art student and while being an intern with the Shumate council. During her time in the OSU undergraduate program, she was able to be diverse in her program of study and learn about multiple mediums of art making such as sculpting, drawing, painting and 3D modeling.
