REBECCAβS ART JOURNEY
Having trained in more traditional still life and classical painting, Rebecca felt more of a pull toward abstract art especially after the premature birth of her daughter India. Rebecca describes how art became therapy for her when dealing with the trauma of the early birth of India and she found a deep love for the expressive and colourful canvases she now creates.
βFilling our home with paintings that made our space feel warm and joyful helped me to reconnect with the happier parts of myself that were damaged when our daughter was so ill. It gave me so much joy to create them and then see them brighten our home. When our friends and family started wanting them too I realised it was something I could share beyond our own walls. Now my daughter is the happiest three year old and my constant inspiration.β
Rebecca loves to create a colour palette she is happy with and then paint instinctively using her signature techniques - combining palette knife work, brushstrokes, gold leaf, oil pastel, pouring paint and spray paint.
