ABOUT THE ARTIST

Childhood Artistic Vibes:
 

Okay, so Rachel's journey into art? It all started in her childhood when she was totally hooked on those Egyptian princess manga characters. The incredible images and stories from these characters stuck with her, laying the foundation for her future love of art. 

 

Career Journey:
 

Fast forward to nine years of Rachel being in the architectural field. "I'm so thankful for being an architect not only to make things look excellent, understanding all these design principles, and blending form with function, but also have an overview from the whole to the details of an object, and I know what makes a thing unique. "

 

Island Adventures:
 

Then, Rachel's art journey took this extraordinary turn when she tagged along with her hubby to Prince Edward Island. Surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, friendly communities, and wild animals, the place sparked her creative side. It was like an inspiration jackpot!

 

Why Charcoal, Though?
 

So, Rachel's got this profound thing going on with her charcoal portraits. It's not just about drawing; it's about freezing those epic moments in time. She wants to make people happy by framing and immortalizing the warm, connected, and emotional moments that could fade away. Every charcoal stroke? It's like her way of capturing life's fleeting beauty and keeping it forever.
 

To her, "Everything in any way beautiful has its beauty of itself."
