Artist Statement
My paintings are abstract, non-representational, mixed-media art. In my paintings, I work with ordinary materials and transform them into 3D texture on the canvas. I use a layering technique for both texture and colors.
Biography
“Shattered”
Rachel Tirosh has been working as an artist since 2005 when she left the high tech industry.
Her work is defined by its rich texture and the use of a simple color scheme. With pigment, water and glue she accentuates the texture on the canvas. Her specialty is using everyday materials and transforming them into 3D textures on the canvas. The results are abstract, non-representational, mixed-media art. She stops the layering process when the painting is presenting itself to her.
Rachel is a self taught artist. After working in the high tech industry as an electronics design engineer for 18 years, she took classes and experimented with a variety of art media including painting, collage, papier-mâché, mosaic, clay-print, photography and computer-digital-design.
“Hang By a Thread”
Rachel is a member of National and local artist and business groups including the Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA), the Los Altos Art Club and the Women Networking Alliance. Rachel has exhibited in several Juried shows in venues such as the Pacific Art League in Palo Alto, the New Coast Gallery in Mountain View, art shows at the PJCC in Foster City and WCA shows in San Jose, Danville and Livermore.
Rachel has been featured in one-person shows in the San Mateo and Saratoga Libraries. Her work is in several private collections
