ROBIN HORASANIAN

 

 

Greetings!  My name is Robin Horasanian.  I’ve always had arts & crafts in my life and have been a rubber stamp card maker since 1996.  I remember my mom helping us make our own Christmas cards when my brother and I were in grade school.  Being in Girl Scouts helped expand the types of crafts that I got to try, including some early scrapbooking.  And although I'm always looking for new ways to be creative, I still consider myself to be mainly a card maker.  I enjoy sending pretty mail out into the world. 

 

 My work in accounts payable doesn’t require creativity, so I try to make time to go into my studio a couple of times a week.  In the last two years I have really enjoyed the 3D mixed media projects that have become more and more important to me. I always have my art journal or a canvas out on the craft table just waiting to be painted.  In fact, there are always a lot of supplies out on the table because I’m just not neat in there.  I love to organize (and reorganize) my studio space every so often.  If I am stuck in a rut or can’t come up with a project idea, I find that cleaning off my table can be a source of inspiration.  I tend to be a “project” cleaner, which means that I don’t do a little bit every day.

 

I’ve belonged to several online stamping groups over the years, including a couple of years as group moderator of a now extinct Yahoo group.  I have participated and hosted a multitude of card swaps.  My cousin and I have frequent “play dates” to create together.  It’s great to get together with someone who understands how the creative mind works.

 

I have a wonderfully supportive husband who appreciates that I have a hobby that I love.  He enjoys seeing the cards and other things I have made and has put in some special requests for his friends and family.  He never ever complains when I drag him to the local craft stores and has even volunteered to go with me to our local convention.  Last year we made a three hour drive to Columbus, OH to meet an online artist that has been a great source of inspiration to me.

When I’m not in the studio you can find me either watching the Detroit Tigers or Detroit Red Wings or with my nose in a book.  Sometimes both at the same time.
