Rachel Allsop

“My main aim is to create atmosperic images, and I like to be experimental in the way in which I paint through the use of striking texture and colour combinations."

"I create my artwork by painting on a base layer of gouache onto wet paper, details are then added to it with coloured pencils or a stick and ink."

"I get my inspiration from a variety of sources, including the natural world, interior design and museums."

"I spent several of my early school years in Japan and I have now become fond of the simplicity of line and composition found within their traditional works of art, and I feel that this past influence can be seen within my work now. Having later studied Illustration in Cornwall I found myself also being inspired by the tranquillity of the local landscape and the unique light that can be seen within this region."
