Artist in Attendance - Rachel Tighe

Spring Forward with Rachel Tighe - Meet The Artist April 16th 2016

'Freesias II'

'It really goes back to basics in the studio for Rachel, as she builds, stretches and primes all of her own canvases. To create most of her paintings she will travel to draw from real life in order to engage and get a feel of the location, to then transcribe onto canvas. This has taken her across the globe for inspiration and new perspectives.'

Rachel predominantly paints cityscape paintings, perfectly capturing the movement, noise and hustle and bustle of the cities we love. 'Spring Forward' will most certainly celebrate the best of Rachel's current vibrant city scenes. 

Rachel is also exploring using her characteristically bold colour palette and graphic mark making in her recent 'Freesias' paintings.  Fluid and abstract in nature, Rachel's original floral works are the perfect pieces to brighten and complete a contemporary home.

Gallery Rouge are delighted to announce that Rachel will be in attendance in our St Albans gallery on 16th April from 2 - 5pm, to reveal and celebrate her brand new collection. If you would like to join us for the event and meet the artist, please RSVP to [email protected] or on 01727 860401.
