Kind Words For Original Paintings

KIND WORDS FROM CORNWALL

Sarah Trethowan

“For me Rachel perfectly captures the feeling of walking through the woods. The colours she uses and the way she depicts the light makes you feel like you could walk straight into her paintings and never want to leave. I can sit and look at it and instantly feel like I am in the woods on a summers day with the sunlight shining through the trees. It brings me a sense of joy and peace. I was fortunate to meet Rachel at the exhibition, she’s as delightful as her paintings and clearly very passionate about her work. I love that each painting has a story. Buying the picture was very easy, with multiple payment options and a very big smile and thank you. I would definitely love to buy more of her work in the future.”

KIND WORDS FROM NORTHAMPTON

Martin Sykala

“I have been with my partner now for ten years plus, the picture I bought just said it all - it reminds me of times when we walked through forests at dusk. Rachel has captured the essence of peace. We both love it. It sums both of us up - old romantics! Painted with a passion, one that sits nicely on my wall, its fresh and vibrant and each time I see it. In time I hope to purchase more from her, for she brings life into art.”

KIND WORDS FROM CORNWALL

Jacqueline Kershaw

“The whole of my family were drawn to Rachel’s painting. For me, it was the juxtaposition of dark and light, I am drawn into the painting each time I catch a glimpse of it hanging beautifully in pride of place in our lounge. I can also see it from my teaching room, so often have a sneaky look. Rachel’s personality and great communication skills made purchasing the painting very easy. I am delighted to be the proud owner of one of Rachel’s originals.”

KIND WORDS FROM AMERICA

Joanna Amstutz

Thank you for creating this gem. The sky just draws you in to the beautiful sunset. My 2 year old grandson thinks there is a fire (he’s into Firetrucks). I know this is not my last purchase, but my husband doesn’t know that yet!

KIND WORDS FROM HARPENDEN

Sarah Woolmer

We unwrapped our painting last night we were both stunned by the pure brilliance of it. It is breathtaking in its depth, it colour, it's sensitivity, it's light. Thank you for creating a piece that we will look with wonder at for the rest of our lives.
We hung it in our bedroom and when I open my eyes in the morning it is the first thing I see...and it reminds me that even on those days where darkness lingers, there is hope that goodness too can light up the hopeless places.

KIND WORDS FROM CORNWALL

Peter Ellsley

Some three years ago I moved from a large-ish farmhouse to an apartment. I had far too many pictures, prints, photographs, statues etc. Some were chosen by my late wife. So those had to come. Some were things I collected on my own since 2004. They had to come too. I also had some family pictures and yes they had to come too. I said at the time of moving "Peter do not buy any more pictures”. That was until I saw "First Light" so I have now made a place for it. I saw - I loved - I bought. It has a tranquil presence.

My painting is the first thing I see when I come in the house and every time I go upstairs! I love it so much - especially now when I am really missing getting out and walking my dogs on my favourite cliff walk.

KIND WORDS FROM CORNWALL

Jo Webber

“The painting that I bought from Rachel captured my attention immediately amongst the others. I loved the composition, the colour palette and interesting markings in the oils. It fits in my home beautifully and brightens a white wall that we walk past a lot. As a family we all adore it, although it was bought for my husband. Buying the painting was very easy and Rachel kindly delivered it to me, I will definitely be looking at her future work and would be very happy to deal with her again.”

KIND WORDS FROM NORTHAMPTONSHIRE

Micheal Manktelow

“I love my painting! It was given to me as a birthday present and it has really brightened up my dark lounge. Rachel's use of texture creates depth within the whole picture - the cliffs look rugged and rough, the clouds light and wispy. Her subtle use of colour means I find something different every time I look at it. It is like looking through a window to my favourite place in Cornwall - all from my sofa in Northamptonshire! 

From what I have been told, the ordering process was easy and simple, Rachel responded quickly and answered all queries clearly. Delivery was quick and well communicated. The parcel arrived in pristine condition, with the painting well secured. It was fun to unwrap on my birthday!”

Tom Ridgeon

“I have known Rachel was an artist for a few years but it never felt the right time to buy one of her pieces until my grandad’s birthday. He knows art. He attended art school in Manchester bumping shoulders with L.S. Lowry, so any piece I bought had to be special. Rachel paints with passion and a longing just to be able to express her God-given talents, thats clear in all her works. The piece is very appreciated by my grandad, and captures the raw beauty of Exmoor, I’m very proud to have acquired one of Rachel’s earlier works, for our families future”.

KIND WORDS FROM AUSTRAILIA

Laura Hill

“Living over in Western Australia now, I use Instragram to fulfil my need to see my home county, Cornwall. I follow various businesses and bloggers but it was when scrolling through the hashtag #cornwall a colourful seascape caught my eye. Once clicking on the Instagram picture I realised it was an advertisement for Rachel’s pop up gallery. Seeing that the gallery had already been open for a couple of days I quickly messaged my mum and sent her over to the gallery to see if my one of favourite paintings was still available. She messaged to say that they had sold the day before. Undeterred I contacted Rachel to see if I could commission a similar painting, but unbeknown to me my mum had purchased one to gift to me! We both love the paintings that Rachel creates, the colourful wildflowers in the foreground really pop against the blue sea. I am so pleased to get my hands on one of the Sea Blooms collection and I can’t wait to bring the beauty back to Australia with me!

I was first introduced to Rachel’s work after seeing a picture at the home of my friends. I was extremely impressed with her style and found a picture which I immediately bought. Rachel’s interpretation of the views she paints, and colours and meaning behind each piece of work has brought us immense pleasure. The ordering and delivery process was absolutely first class , and we are so lucky to have found an artist whose work evokes such happy memories every day we see our picture.

It is just perfect. The room is very light and I love the way the sky appears to change as the light varies during the day and into the evening so that you keep noticing something different. I am sure I shall have many years of enjoyment with ‘Confidence’!

KIND WORDS FROM WALES

Rhian Morgan

“By her active listening skills, artistic talent and clear emotional understanding, Rachel has managed to perfectly capture a moment of blissful happiness in one painting. Whenever I look at it I feel instant calm, warmth and contentment. We have hung it above our bedroom fireplace so that this is the last thing I look at when I go to sleep and first thing I see when I wake.”

KIND WORDS FROM Devon

Phil Clack

My wife is an artist and is fascinated by how people capture light in paintings. Rachel does this in an amazing way and is one of Danielle’s favourite artists so naturally when a milestone birthday came around I got in touch about a commission.

The whole process was really easy. We communicated first through Instagram, then by email and shared ideas for the painting, with helpful guidance and suggestions made to help the finished piece even better. The painting is perfect as we know we it would be and receives universal appreciation from everyone who sees it.

Rachel even made a lovely frame for us and packaged the painting up beautifully for its journey home. Danielle’s painting now hangs in pride of place in our lounge where we can now see one of our favourite sunset views anytime we like. Thank you, I suspect our first ‘Painter’ won’t be our last!’

KIND WORDS FROM LONDON

Kirsty Clegg

“Working with Rachel was a dream; she was incredibly professional, courteous and clearly passionate about the project from the get go. I commissioned an individual piece of art, of a place in Cornwall close to my heart, and not only was I able to see the piece as it progressed but I was also encouraged to give feedback if I wanted to. I am thrilled with the result, which now hangs proudly in our London living room. The customer service was excellent from beginning to end, I would highly recommend Rachel for beautiful original art.”

KIND WORDS FROM BRIGHTON

April Parsons

I wanted to commission a painting of Mawgan Porth for my partner as a wedding present- I’ve never in my life done anything like this before but Rachel made it effortless. I felt involved and included throughout the entire process and I couldn’t recommend her more. The piece fits perfectly in our home and everyday we’re reminded of that perfect day. I couldn’t be more grateful.

KIND WORDS FROM CHESHIRE

Natasha Harding

I am so happy to have come across Rachel's work online when looking to commission a painting of our engagement in Corfu. Every time I look at the piece it takes me back to that special moment, as she has captured the light and the emotion so well! Rachel was amazing throughout the process from reviewing my idea based on a collation of pictures from our engagement, quotation, initial sketch, first review then final tweaks. I would certainly recommend Rachel's work. Maybe I can have another in the future if I am lucky!

KIND WORDS FROM SCOTLAND

Chris Elfes

I chose to commission a painting as a leaving gift for a fantastic colleague to combine something unique and individually tailored with ever lasting happy memories of our times working together.

It was not easy to find the right person and artist, but after local and regional searching was drawn to Rachel’s evocative skies and seascapes.

Once in contact with Rachel, I knew straightaway that she was the right person. She is quick to respond, is careful to establish what it is you like and are looking for with a really helpful set of outlined examples for me to choose from - guided by her expert advice. The whole process from start to finish was smooth, supportive and I was kept clearly informed at each stage with honest timelines and price guides.

I had never commissioned a painting before would definitely do so again and wholeheartedly recommend Rachel.

Rachel painted a wonderful picture for my brother's special birthday. He saw some of her work at an exhibition. He is not normally an art lover but he loved Rachel's style. I contacted Rachel to arrange a commission of a style and colours we loved which was made with easy interaction between us. Thank you Rachel for the beautiful vibrant painting , we all love it.
