Aliens (2023) Painting by Theartistrobert

Robert Walker, known in the art world as theartistrobert, is a contemporary painter based in Suffolk, UK. Known for his captivating 'geo-figurative' works and distinctive still lifes, Robert has established himself as a prominent artist within the contemporary art scene.

Primarily working with oils, Robert revels in the medium's versatility and is currently exploring mixed media to further enrich his artistic practice. His geo-figurative pieces, characterized by the interplay of organic figures with geometric forms, showcase a tight color harmony and composition. An intuitive artist, Robert draws from a deep understanding of formal composition and color theory, evident in his expressive and dynamic creations.

Fascinated by the semiotics of the human figure, Robert's works derive profound meaning from the model's body language and expressions. The figurative outlines within his art serve as a conduit to communicate the latent electric energy within the human form. Notable in his technique is the use of 'guard' lines, a personal stylistic choice that both protects the model and contributes to the abstract expressionist nature of his work.

As a Member of the Visual Artists Association, Robert acknowledges the significant impact the organization has had on his attitude and approach toward his work. The confidence and support gained have empowered him to share his creations on a broader scale.

Having sold works to collectors across the US, Europe, and Asia, Robert recently transitioned to working full-time at his art practice. While primarily self-taught, he has augmented his skills through part-time studies at Barnes Atelier in London and online courses with respected tutors, including Scott Eaton, Scott Waddell, and Dorian Iten, known for their rigorous atelier-based training.
