About Rebecca Freear

 
 
  • Biography

    Images from nature, whether plants, flowers, leaves, trees or landscapes inspire the majority of my artworks. When I’m out every morning walking the dog, I find new visual delights to inform my day’s work. I’ll return to the studio with a cup of tea, have a tidy up and sort through partially-completed pieces and decide how to progress with the day’s work. I may use oil or acrylic paint or watercolours or drawing mediums - pencil, charcoal, pastel or ink - or printmaking methods such as Linocut or collagraph. Some work is built up from a variety of mediums often employing collage techniques. In the studio I have a large collection of art books for inspiration, my favourite artists being Eric Ravillious and Samuel Palmer.

    My favourite poem is by John Clare 1793 - 1864 and includes the lines:

    Rich music breathes in Summer's every sound; 

    And in her harmony of varied greens...

    Much beauty intervenes, 

    Filling with harmony the ear and eye; 

    While o'er the mingling scenes 

    Far spreads the laughing sky.
