REBECCA BROMLEY
Showing all 40 results
Rebecca’s inspiration come from many places, but often it is stories and people from her own imagination which are infused into her depictions of the real world around her. Capturing her environment is the starting point for her paintings, which are then inhabited and transformed
She works in layers with crayons, oil pastels, acrylic paint and tissue paper, scratching through to reveal colours and light.
Rebecca graduated with BA Illustration having studied at Chelsea Art College and Kingston University

Rebecca Bromley - Botanical Series
December 2018 -Michigan State Univerity Botanical Gardens
It was soggy, freezing and dead. Sticks, brown seedheads attached to crumpled shrubs, leaves trapped under ice, and strands of what once were plants hanging off trellises.
But there were hopeful labels by each dead botanical, of names that were silly, wonderful and half in Latin, suggesting how lovely the dead things had been. And would be again, when the spring came back...
I imagined the plants coming back to life, and what their characters would be when they did. Here are some of them. They are shy but friendly once you get them chatting. I may have tweaked their names a bit... Five of these are based in Michigan. One (Maud in the summer) is based on an equally wintry Knightshayes, DevonĀ
