At Chance Art, 
beautiful art tells a story.

Inspired by my daughter to tell the story of our journey, I became an author and illustrator. I currently have three children's picture books available: 
C is for China,  Ewela's Baaad Day! and now a new release, Captain Little and The Great Toy Store Rescue 

I've also created illustrations for an English Language Learners reading project, for short stories that accompany a Young Adult trilogy based on Celtic mythology, and an early chapter book that follows the adventure of Captain Little and her crew as she sets out to save a beloved toy store.
​I am also member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators.

Locally my books are available at the following retailers:
Captain Little Toy Store, Olympia, WA
121 5th Ave SE
Gallery Boom, Olympia, Wa
3959 Martin Way East

"“Captain Little and the Great Toy Store Rescue” was created with a real artist’s heart, attention to detail and sincerity. Full of whimsy, this book is highly imaginative and really taps into a childlike wonder and encourages the reader to listen to their own day dreams...I have to say, I love the fact that Captain Little is a girl. We need more stories in this world where heroines are not secondary to heroes, and where heroines can lead efforts toward positivity and invoke creativity without the help of a man...The illustrations in this book are beautiful and entirely charming. Local artist Robyn Chance perfectly captured the fantastic nature of this book and drew the characters in such a way that is truly heart warming...This book is a love letter to us all, and a reminder that each one of us matters and makes this world a brighter place.

Author, and business owner, Paul Shepard and Illustrator Robyn Chance, have teamed up for an early            chapter book adventure: Captain Little and the Great Toy Store Rescue
It is now available for purchase from the Captain Little toy store in Olympia! ​


                    Captain Little and
​          The Great Toy Store Rescue!

Captain Little, a little sailor mouse, is working on her small sailboat one day when a crow lands on a branch above her to ask if she had heard the latest news from the town of Olympia: the town’s toy store had closed! Captain Little quickly comes up with a rescue plan to save Olympia’s long-loved toy store. With the help of two brave fellow mice and guided overhead by the imaginative (and often distracted) crow, Captain Little sails to Olympia, overcoming perils and obstacles along the way. But reaching Olympia is the easy part. How can three little mice    open a big toy store?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

C is for China

Through the use of ABCs, rhyme and culturally relevant images, C is for China helps readers of all ages learn something new about the unique contributions Chinese culture has made to our world. 
"Robyn Chance is a truly gifted illustrator." 
- Kristin Hannah, bestselling author of 18 novels 

"Although 'C is for China' is a picture book, the instructive text gives readers of all ages a deeper understanding of the values and traditions unique to China. Ms. Chance's exquisite attention to detail in her artwork helps to capture the self-discipline of the Chinese culture."
 - Mary Mathis; Middle School Teacher-Librarian 

Ewela's Baaad Day!

Ewela is a black sheep with big dreams. She longs to see her name in lights, and to be someone special. But the other sheep find her ideas baa-fling, and maybe even a little silly. 


So Ewela leaves the farm in search of her dreams. 
But the great wide world is not all Ewela expected, and in the end, she discovers that you don't need stage lights to shine. Sometimes dreams can come true right in your own back yard..
"What a truly delightful story! After reading C is for China, I wanted to see more of Robyn's magical illustrations and Ewela provided the perfect opportunity. My daughter is an elementary school teacher and I will recommend this sweet read to her; I believe it would be a perfect message for her 4th graders. I highly reccomend this story for every child who dreams to be someone different from what others expect!" - Tonia Ferguson


"This a sweet story. The illustrations are beautifully detailed and imaginative. I think this would be a wonderful book for children to have in their collection. Its a nice story about learning to appreciate what you have, who you are and the ones that love you"- Amy Anderson
