Rachel's artistic approach is defined by her experimental, playful, and colorful style with a minimalist touch. She thrives on merging disparate ideas into cohesive, unexpected artworks, a process a friend playfully describes as "weeble-wobble." This philosophy allows her to turn off her critical mind, delve into her emotions and observations, and often results in abstract creations that are as thought-provoking as they are beautiful.
