Tree arms, Short-eared Owl

Rachel Lockwood's work is formed by what surrounds her, with an emphasis on the natural world and our relationship with it. Fortunately, Rachel lives in an area that is incredibly diverse, with forests, huge skies, marshland and waterways. People come from far and wide to gaze upon this landscape and it's the memories and feelings of this that we keep within that interests her. This is what Rachel tries to draw out; a condensed image of what she has seen and felt. Forests, in particular, are becoming increasingly significant to Rachel, as these spaces force us to use our primal senses even more. Rachel recently spent a year painting the changing seasons in a local forest, which allowed her to stop and absorb the movement, sounds and colour within it. One of the things Rachel realised was how the mind fills in the gaps in what we hear and what we think we've seen. Rachel Lockwood is a member of the SWLA.
