About Bobbie Rich

Born in Atlanta, Georgia, Bobbie Rich lived in Texas, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Virginia and Illinois all before the age of 15. Bobbie was drawn to the West Coast by the University of Southern California and promises of learning from accomplished artists, art and academic scholarships and the LA art scene. Bobbie is now rooted in Santa Monica, creating her paintings outside under nature’s lighting. Bobbie’s art is featured in private collections in Florence, Kuwait, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver and more. She initially gained inspiration working in advertising. Bobbie was entranced, yet turned off by the glossy images in magazines. Her blind contour paintings transformed sterile, perfect images into whimsical satire. Currently, Bobbie travels the world and is inspired by nature, wildlife, cultural persona, costumes, architecture and decorative works. You may have spotted Bobbie people watching this year in Lisbon, Porto, Madrid, Sevilla, Granada, Toledo, Taipai, Kaohsiung, Sanyi, Yilan, Danshui, Aspen and Maui.
