Tamara Robertson

The Circle of Art and Nature

Tamara Robertson’s journey with art began in her Houston childhood, where circles became a recurring motif in her creations. “Circles have their own delicate version of grace and beauty as one of nature’s recurring motifs,” she says.

Home-schooled and frequently visiting the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, Tamara’s passion for art grew. By high school, she was winning local art shows and taking commissions.

Enrolling in college at 16, Tamara trained as a graphic designer but found true happiness in studio work. Graduate school at Stephen F. Austin State University helped her merge realism with abstraction, leading to her unique style of fragmented, multi-leveled blocks.

Inspired by nature, particularly the trees around her studio at Caddo Lake, Tamara’s work evolved.
