Rachel Goodyear

Rachel Goodyear was is a yong yet successful artist Wendy and I came across whilst visiting the Manchester Art gallery, Her illustrations are hand drawn, pencil, fine liner and water coloured, they are very raw but very imaginative. She is inspired by mythology, folklore, and person experiences, which she uses to create these eye catching images of people and animals. I can't help but find some of the images we saw, quite sinister and dark. The characters all looked very soulless and tormented. They all seem to have very intense emotions too. There was also an animation of these birds coming to life, it was called 'Kissing in Tunnels' and i found it to be very creepy, but i was mesmerised by it.

Here are some pictures Wendy and I took from the gallery:



She is most definitely someone I will look back to.
