Art. Attitude. Atomic Love. |
Welcome to my website. Thank you for visiting. |
Hi. I'm Rachelle Rose. With the millions of destinations available on the internet, I'm grateful that you'd spend a few minutes here with me. So, thank you for taking the time to read a little about me on my quirky little website that I started way back in 2001. My formal training and college degrees are in fine art, music, and elementary education. I paint, take lots of pictures, and generally make unusual crafty things when I can. My favorite medium changes all the time, but I always end up reacquainting with watercolor. It cleanses my soul. It is my other language. I custom paint old, messed up records, along with painting Maneki Nekos, abstract art, space art, and mandalas. I also make things with garbage and found objects. I have a crazy fetish for any and all kind of pens, calligraphy, or handwritten ephemera. If you take me to an office supply store, I can spend at least an hour looking only at pens and weighing every possible option. This is true. Ask my very patient husband. Some of my influences are loud music, the Saturday morning cartoons of my youth, all forms of animation, comic books, my talented artist friends and relatives, particularly esoteric or ridiculous fortune cookies, and vintage photobooth photography. I'm frequently inspired by my disjunct, bizarre, and often grotesque dreams, the genius of Carl Jung and his mandalas, psychedelic art, geometric art forms in nature, old movies, and the coolest classic cartoon lady of all time: my hero, Betty Boop. I cook. From scratch. All cuisines. 'Nuff said. I only listen to one kind of music. The good kind. I am superstitious. Sometimes I try to see molecules. Despite my surname, my favorite flower is the daisy. I love the smell of oranges. I like to put potato chips on my sandwiches to make them crunchy. I am a Leo and I was born in the Year of the Monkey. I do not believe in heaven or hell. |
