About Rachel Meehan
Scottish Borders based fine artist, and keen gardener Rachel produces floral and bird designs which are develop into prints, cards, gift wrapping papers and a range of other products.
The technique used involves working from black to white before the colour is added and each image is carefully and painstakingly hand drawn. The pieces can take many days or weeks to complete.
Inspiration comes from her garden, where perennial flowers are the focus. Rachel likes to capture both the botanical detail and the essence of the plant
The birds, which are becoming more prevalent tend to be chosen due to the colour of their feathers or the poses they hold when feeding. The bolder and brighter the better!
