"I was so impressed with what
he did," she said. "He doesn't
limit himself to one medium. He's
multifaceted; he works in oils and
acrylics, with metal, wood and
fabric."
A Juilliard-trained performer,
Donna worked in the marketing
field.
"I got him involved in galleries
and local art shows," she said. "I
thought, there's a talent here and
the world should see."
Throughout the years, Robert
worked as a master carpenter
and continued to paint, sculpt,
carve and indulge his muse -
to the praise and delight of his
audiences.
In 2007, the Rivkins moved
to The Villages and Robert joined
The Villages Art League and the
Visual Arts Association, displaying art at annual shows and creating additional stimulating pieces.
"I'm an inventor," he said.
"The ideas just keep coming to me.
I always strive to do something
different, something that catches
a person's eye. I want you to look
at my work and say, 'Wow!'"
