Robin Lee
Custom hand-painted tiles and sinks
Olympia, Washington 98501
What Robin does
I bring the joy of nature into everyday life-by enhancing kitchens, bathrooms, with custom hand painted tile murals and sinks. I pay particular attention to how places will be used, and the interests of those who will use them. The result is the creation of environments that are responsive to human needs, give back to those who experience them, and continue to be of value in a world where things are quick to go out of style.
What Robin does best
My most popular work enorporates the native flora and fauna. Here in Washington, it's often herons with Mt Rainier and trees in the distance; orcas or dogwood. Backsplashes often feature hummingbirds and the favorite flowers in a person's garden, or continue the view seen from big picture windows.
What does Robin need?
Branding, and design for a new business card and brochure.
Organization, systems and upkeep to help with various aspects of my ceramic business and other ventures.
Projects/collabortion with people who love life and nature, and recognize we don't have to sacrifice beauty or quality of life to live in alignment with the planet
(trading services is a great option for cross promotion)
Education
4 years at UC, Santa Cruz; Enterprise for Equity Business Training
Experience
I've been an artist all my life, focusing on custom ceramics in residential and commercial installations for the last 17 years. My latest project is a series of sinks with Northwest natives for the Thurston County Housing Authority's new complex, which will be completed in June, 2009. I am a member and volunteer with the Northwest EcoBuilding Guild and promote sustainable building practces.
