Drawbertson’s Round Top Debut: Wrubel Collab Rocks the Red Antler

Artist Donald Robertson (aka Drawbertson) made his Round Top debut by the pool at the dazzling James Cabana at the Red Antler Luxury Bungalows this spring. 

The James Cabana pool house at Red Antler was transformed into a gallery space to display the artist’s pieces. Robertson also created new works en presence and signed copies of his book Sofa King Great. Invited guests enjoyed music, cocktails and delicious bites from Red Antler chef Lawrence Fogarty who created savory crisped rice treats just for the event.

Robertson brought a series of collaborative pieces created with fine art photographer Steve Wrubel, whose work is featured year-round at Halles Art Barn at The Halles. Wrubel’s Rodeo Series pieces served as the backdrop for Robertson’s whimsical themes. Works were overlaid with Robertson’s signature red lips, hand painted words, and flowers. All painted with common house paint.
