Robin-Lee Hall has exhibited at the Royal Society of Portrait Painters annual exhibition, the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, and the Portrait Award at the National Portrait Gallery, as well as other galleries in and around London.
This solo exhibition displays almost 30 of her works, including paintings, etchings and drawings with subjects ranging from intensely observed characterful portraits, to colour infused still life paintings and intimate little landscapes.
Her inspiration comes from the people who sit for her, the nostalgic objects either lent or given to her, traditional British cakes and confectionary, and the views out of her back-bedroom window.
She works almost exclusively in egg tempera, an ancient painting medium used by Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci. Her paintings take time to develop, with many thin layers of colour. These layers create the unique luminosity you see in her work.
Robin-Lee lectures at the Royal Academy of Arts, the National Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery.
Works are for sale with the proceeds supporting the artist and the artistic programme at The Lightbox.

Come into the Lightbox Gallery and meet the artist on Saturday 28 September and Saturday 2 November, 11am-3pm.
