Rachel Holloway  MFA





My work is based on landscapes with attention placed on formal issues such as line, pattern, ryhthm,light and color.

The mood and heightened sense of space is more important than any realism.

Drawing and watercolor painting on site helps me to respond fluidly to information that would otherwise be missed. In the studio I expand and elaborate on these themes on large oil paintings.




A graduate of the Slade School of Fine Art, Rachel has exhibited over 20 times throughout the UK. 

In Los Angeles she became one of the most sought after Production Designers for Music Video and has many distinguished credits to her name (she has worked with the Stones, Lenny Kravitz, Michael Jackson and shot all over the globe). You can see her reel here. hemet

Over the last few years she has devoted more time to her landscape painting with many excursions through California and Wales in which she painted and photographically documented formal components of terrain. She recently founded an art discussion and criticism group, bringing together a number of prominent LA artists.

Rachel has taught fine art at Canterbury College of Art and Design and at Carmarthen College of Art.

Rachel paints from her studio in Topanga Canyon, California.
