Becky Robbins is native to Colorado where she lived until moving to California to honor both mountains and the ocean. The variety in her career choices have included medicine, the business of creation and development of personal growth and at this time, the business of creating art. Her life choices that have contributed to this endeavor owe to her love of Nature both above and below the sea, of worldwide indigenous cultures, science, music, theater and the exploration of the psychology and spirituality of humans and creatures.   Her art became the focus of her life after leaving the personal development business and having a curiosity for all things that have profound depth and interconnectedness in tangible and ethereal ways.  Minimal academic art education created the freedom for Becky to immerse in series of art vastly different and unique that have led her to this current expression which is her signature style, while every painting is its own individual world.   Her art is informed by her love of adventure travel and back roads experiences chosen to illuminate the land, its creatures, the cultures and their self-expression in both lifestyle and the things they make. This depth of knowledge which is never complete nor permanent is what gives each painting its own voice and keeps Becky returning to the easel as a tool for her own awareness and expansion in her personal life and operating system in the world at large.   Her work is experienced in the images portrayed, collaborated at times with other artists and photographers, and in the manner the viewer is taken on a personal journey of their own. Each oil painted piece is a half-year process itself and perceived through the lens of the artist and the world she inhabits.    Her current projects include a show created for television called The Art of Art. It's a cinematographic experience seeing individual creators in the process of their craft and it's hosted by Becky. She interviews these masters and ties in those who use the creations.How does paint get in a tube? That question created the trip through the Old Holland Paint Company labs where pigments from the Masters were obtained and are still used to make some of the best oil paints in the world. That episode ends with a tour through the Restoration Department at the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art in NYC. A visual feast! Another episode stars saddle makers and the intricate process they use and includes the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and how a group is focused on creating indoor arenas for the children to be able to have refuge in the long South Dakota winters, reviving their heritage by learning to ride horses, participating in relay races between tribes and much more.   Becky has had remarkable healing experiences after 2 total knee replacement surgeries by using lasers that are unique in the world, created by a unique doctor and is devoted to getting these out into the world to assist others with healing from surgeries, injuries, cognitive decline and more. It's a passion for her to help others achieve the freedom she now has.    Becky describes herself as an outdoor person when not in her studio, loves an active lifestyle of skiing, diving, hiking, and and more. An avid learner, she enjoys her guitar, djembe drums, research and discovery. She is an advocate of HeartMath and meditation, her spiritual evolution and care of this planet Earth. She is a devoted supporter of La Jolla Playhouse and Scripps Institute of Oceanography's Birch Aquarium and a program Just Like My Child for Girl Power in Uganda and India. . She treasures her family and lives and works in Del Mar, California.  

The group trying to replace San Diego Gas and Electric with a municipal utility spoke out Tuesday. Power San Diego says they don't appreciate SDG&E's moves to stop their ballot initiative. In other news, San Diego's underwater kelp forests are a natural wonder that are under threat from climate change. That wonderful and troubling story is being told at the Birch Aquarium in a new exhibit called Hold Fast. Plus, love is in the air and sprouting in North County. While many flowers sold this holiday are imported, it's also a big day for locally grown flowers, and an even greater sea of color is just around the corner.

Scripps Institution of Oceanography marine biologist Stuart Sandin illuminates his work leading the 100 Island Challenge, a project that uses high tech ecological surveys to capture snapshots of coral reef ecosystems found in the tropical waters of the Pacific, Caribbean, and Indian oceans. His team uses large-area imaging and 3-D visualizations to make unprecedented detailed observations of how coral reefs are faring. While some reefs are struggling, others have been able to adapt in response to changing climate and other human impacts. By combining ocean observation with modern techniques like genetic sequencing and data analysis, Stuart and his team aim to elucidate which corals are surviving and how. By decoding nature's incredible capacity for adaptation, these scientists are paving the way for using this new knowledge to aid coral reef recovery.   Series: "Jeffrey B.

The Pacific footballfish is a large but rarely encountered deep-sea anglerfish known from only 31 specimens recovered worldwide. Strangely, over the course of last year (2021), three footballfish were found washed up on beaches in San Diego and Orange Counties. Scripps scientists aren't quite sure why these rare creatures are suddenly showing up on our beaches, but were lucky enough to collect, preserve and archive one of these unusual animals in Scripps world class oceanographic collections. This specimen, a true oddity, is now on display for a very limited time at Birch Aquarium. To see the footballfish and learn more about it, join us and Scripps Collections Manager, Ben Frable, for a deep dive into the fascinating story of this mysterious fish, where and how it lives, the biology of anglerfishes, and how Scripps scientists are preserving this animal for future research.

San Diego is known for more than just it's famous zoo. It also hosts the Scripps Institute of Oceanography, the University of Southern California, and the Birch Aquarium -- all of which are located within sight of each other. What you get is world-leading research being showcased by the Birch Aquarium. However, their exhibits are just the tip of the iceberg. Look behind the super-sized aquarium installations and learn about their breeding program to save Sea Dragons, or sea turtle rescues, or lay your hands on their extensive shark jaw collection, and so much more.

Well-known and loved as a great American folk singer, 89 year old Sam Hinton was also curator of the old Scripps Aquarium Museum from the mid 1940s through the mid 1960s. Sam inspired millions of people, young and old, in their love of the ocean and marine life. He began collecting creatures for the aquarium as a helmet diver for Scripps, then went on to learn Aqualung diving from the legendary Conrad Limbaugh on one of the first Aqualung units in the U.S. Naturalist, artist, author, teacher and folk singer, Sam Hinton is a true treasure. I hope you enjoy this recent interview with Sam about his Scripps Years. A special thank you to Sam Hinton's biographer, Adam Miller, for all his help with images, music and a wealth of knowledge about folk music and Sam. Adam is also an incredible folk singer in the the great Sam Hinton tradition. For more information on Sam Hinton, please go to www.SamHinton.org.

"Squid Run!" (Part 2) concludes our two-part series with Dr. John McGowan discussing the strange life cycle of this species, the ocean predators that take advantage of the mass squid spawning events, those red worms that appear in the squid egg beds, and amazing baby squid! Baby Squid footage includes Lance Milbrand's beautiful close-ups of squid larvae inside the eggs, baby squid hatching and swimming off. Also featured is incredible microscopic footage of squid larvae originally produced by Leslee Matsushige of the Birch Aquarium, John Moore of Divebums.com and Mary Lynn Price. Marty Snyderman's wonderful footage and images of Rays and Blue Shark that feast on all the squid, and Bob Bayer's footage of Lobster, Sheepcrab and Scorpionfish feeding on squid give a sense of all the ocean animals that take advantage of the mass spawning events. Bob Gladden's images of those strange red worms round out the scene of animals often seen among the egg cases. Mary Lynn Price's underwater footage opens and closes this episode, as she documents a 2001 Squid Run, featuring diver Stephie Vierkotter experiencing her first Squid Run.
