Rachel South

Rachel is a dedicated artist whose passion for creating began at an early age. Over the last decade, Rachel has focused intently on building a body of work that reflects both personal interests and a growing artistic reach.

Holding a Bachelor of Fine Art, with majors in painting and printmaking, as well as studies in Transpersonal Art Therapy, Rachel’s educational background supports a rich and thoughtful approach to art.

Settling in Elimbah, Rachel now finds inspiration surrounded by native flora and fauna, fully immersed in the natural beauty of the Moreton Bay area. This environment not only influences the work but also provides an ideal setting for reflection and growth as an artist.

Rachel has been recognised for her contributions to the arts, being named a finalist in several prestigious competitions in 2024, including the Brisbane Portrait Prize 'Salon de Refuse,' the Moreton Bay Regional Art Prize, and having their work featured in Arts to Heart's publication Lines & Curves. Active in the local arts community, Rachel is proud to be part of the Moreton Bay area's growing cultural landscape and its efforts to cultivate the arts.

Process

Rachel’s aim is to evoke an emotional or spiritual connection between the artwork and the viewer, with a sincere hope that their paintings offer moments of healing and self-reflection. This desire to connect on a deeper level is central to Rachel’s artistic philosophy.

With each painting, Rachel lays the groundwork for the next, constantly evolving and learning from the creative process. The natural beauty of her garden and the vast Australian landscape are key inspirations.
