About Us
Robin Patterson
Hi! My name is Robin Patterson.
I wear many hats. I paint, draw, write, take photos, and work in graphic design, just to name a few. But that's the thing about creative people—their artistic interests often flow into other imaginative areas.
I’ve been a teacher of art, design, writing, and all-around creativity for over 20 years. I’m passionate about sharing all that I've learned through the years and love seeing the wonder in a new artist's eyes as their skills grow and evolve. Helping others realize their creative potential is rewarding and drives me to continue teaching.
My husband and I have settled here in Ontario’s SDG area after moving around Canada. We've lived in Quebec, Saskatchewan, and BC, but I’m happy to call Ontario home.

Our Art Classes & Workshops
Discover your inner artist!
At Crayon Box Studio, we strive to make art accessible, hands-on, and simple. Our classes focus on creativity and imagination, as well as traditional techniques. Each lesson allows students to explore different mediums while developing their artistic processes. We introduce art history and encourage discussion, curiosity, and opinion. Above all, we are passionate about fostering a love of art in our students and instilling the belief in their creative abilities.
Nurturing creative expression has numerous benefits. Being immersed in the tactile world of art boosts self-confidence, relieves stress, improves problem-solving skills, and helps us process the world around us. Making art can be life-changing, and it’s never too late to start!
We teach classes for all ages and student levels. View our class pages for more information and join an upcoming session!
