I’m Rachel, a Welsh visual artist passionate about capturing the essence of urban and rural life through my art. Throughout my life, I’ve developed a keen eye for the beauty that surrounds us. An appreciation that has influenced every piece I create, whether it’s a serene landscape or a vibrant abstract composition. Since graduating from the University of the West of England with an illustration degree, I’ve become a full-time artist working both in and outside my studio as often as the Welsh weather permits. 

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of showcasing my artwork in Cellar Door exhibitions at the Louisiana, Tobacco Factory, and other venues around Bristol. I currently have artwork exhibiting in businesses and galleries in and around Cardiff. 

I most often work in watercolour, but vary between different media, including 3D models and digital work. I have recently focused my work on local urban scenes.
