Collection: Rachel Vollerthun [ nee Sedley ]

Rachel Vollerthun (previously Sedley) studied Foundation level art at Leith School of Art (1997-1998) receiving a high commendation. She continued studying painting at Glasgow School of Art from 1998-2002 (BAHons Fine art).

Rachel's work is often a balance between realism and abstraction, with a strong emphasis on colour. She uses unusual techniques to achieve this, such as fluorescent colour, raw pigment laid onto the canvas, or juxtaposing the natural colours created by pyrography with paint. She currently works primarily in watercolour and ink, and has recently begun to work with sustainable pigments and materials, exploring themes of sustainability. Rachel also has a keen interest in figurative work, working from live models with an emphasis on strong female models.
