She is grateful to have grown up surrounded by the rich and beautiful landscape that is Mesa County. In her own words, “I create my whimsical and vibrant art in watercolor and through digital media. A lot of my work involves quirky character designs. To me, the most inspiring thing in the whole world is nature, especially plants and animals, and I often incorporate these elements into my work. Whether I'm designing my own hybrid creatures, or creating custom portraits, I am always looking for opportunities to add a creative twist.” When Rachel is not creating art, she’s often snuggling with her two incredibly fluffy cats or outside roller skating.
