Storm in a teacup. Artist Feast Rachel Redfern

Rachel’s artwork is varied and instinctive. Working with oils she draws on photograph’s, sketches and memories based on her time in nature and the impact of seasons and world events on her daily life and mental health. Time spent in silent contemplation outside contrasts with reflective moments at her painting altar or frenetic bouts of activity in the studio, pushing and pulling oil paint, mark making with hands, brushes, pouring, scraping, revealing, losing. As in life seeking moments of chance to allow beauty to be revealed in the near and far, vast yet intimate.
