Many thanks to Duran Ross for taking time to visit my home and studio for a brief conversation. Duran currently works for ESPN, however his passion lies with storytelling. His @dreampurposeproject is a compilation of interviews with people who are living their lives with purpose and therefore making their dreams a reality. I’ve given many interviews which require the listener to dedicate an hour or more of their time. Duran keeps the clips short and sweet. You can check out my snippets and others by following the link in my profile. #dreampurposeproject #legacy #striveforgreatness #dream #inspiration #purpose #marioarobinson https://www.instagram.com/p/B0uJymWAVTy/?igshid=a3ndz6zwu0c9

Squall, watercolor, 12 x 16 inches. * Fun fact: I lost this painting along other four others in Dulles Airport last year. It happened again earlier this month, as I traveled to Canada. Needless to say, I won’t be hand carrying my art anymore. 🙈 : #pointpleasantbeach #pointpleasant #nj #oceancounty #squall #beach #localartist #winsorandnewton #winsorandnewtonwatercolors #winsorandnewtonpaper #series7brush #marioarobinson (at Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0a-dYIgXCd/?igshid=1r6fjiwady2r9

The couriers for the U. S. Department of State just picked up my two paintings. They are headed to Equatorial Guinea and will hang in the representational space of the Ambassadorial residence. This is where the bulk of the Ambassador’s diplomatic functions are held. I’d like to thank the Ambassador Susan Stevenson for choosing my paintings to live with for the duration of her tenure. I’m honored to participate in the @artinembassies program for the second time. * #artinembassies #usdepartmentofstate #usambassador #equatorialguinea #usa #watercolor #aquarelle #acuarela #archespaper #winsorandnewton #winsorandnewtonwatercolors #marioarobinson https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxhss_IgoP2/?igshid=ga55sken6s41

Ma, watercolor, 7.9 x 7.9 inches (SOLD). * Mother’s Day is particularly special for me and my family. My mother suffered an aneurism 10 years ago. I’m proud of the way she’s recovered continues to thrive, despite the challenges she’s faced. No one can make me laugh like she can. I’ve never met a more entertaining storyteller. Her rigorous work ethic inspired me early on in my youth. This recently completed watercolor captures an intimate moment we shared (watching television) during a recent visit to Alabama. ❤️ * #happymothersday #mother #impracticaljokers #gossip #huntsville #alabama #watercolor #aquarelle #acuarela #winsorandnewton #winsorandnewtonwatercolors #marioarobinson https://www.instagram.com/p/BxXXv8cAZ4x/?igshid=vfssth1mjjny

Just wrapped a four and a half hour conversation with @ry_art1998. Ryanne’s a junior @lcadfinearts and working on a presentation on my work. Her questions were well thought out and concise. I thoroughly enjoy discussing art and life with young minds. : #lcad #artschool #lagunabeach #california #skype #watercolorpainting #watercolor #aquarelle #acuarela #winsorandnewton #winsorandnewtonwatercolors #marioarobinson https://www.instagram.com/p/BvAu8TSgnfM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17c78cj1nhs3a
