About

Rebecca Carr is a UK-based contemporary artist working across painting and mixed media.

Her practice is rooted in landscapes and still life, and she explores inspiration from indoor and outdoor life and exploring the link between the two, often drawing line into her work to bring new perspectives into her painting.

She works to commission, as well as selling original paintings and studied Art Foundation at Northbrook College in West Sussex and for a degree in Fine Art installation at the University of Derby, as well as post graduate study at Lancaster University and Leeds Beckett. 

This year she is part of North Yorkshire Open Studios and my artwork has been exhibited in local galleries. She has sold her artwork at The Fusion Art Fair Harrogate, Art in the Pen, The Country Living Fairs, Home and Gift and BCTF, my art is in private art collections and many places around the world.

She creates work to be lived with, collected and enjoyed. Whether it’s a small piece on a shelf or a larger painting anchoring a room, she contemplates how it will sit in a space, and how it brings a sense of ease, interest and colourful expression to its surroundings.

Alongside original paintings, she offers a selection of prints and takes on a limited number of commissions.

If you’re looking for something for your home, or a piece that feels personal to your space, you can browse available work or get in touch about commissions.

'My desire is to connect with the materials, build bonds with the canvas, sit in the sunshine, or that tinkling of rain and fluttering breeze, observe and paint.  Mastering my interpretation of colour and materials, understanding my connection to the subject and exploring is my main objective.  Observations and humour have encompassed themselves in my old drawings.  Now I'm here tantalising ideas with brushstrokes, observing the landscape or celebrating a group of found objects in the form of a still life.  I don't adhere to the rigidity of categorisation, I ebb and flow with the flux as the creative passion drives me, quietly acquainting myself with my work.'

Rebecca is a contemporary artist with a range of paintings, prints and limited edition gifts.
