YellowBelly Art ...... a Lincolnshire Artist
Rachel Ashworth-Jerem, Artist Biography
Lincolnshire Artist
With a rich and diverse career spanning three decades in the Theatre industry as a Director and Choreographer, my expertise extends to costume, set, and lighting design. Concurrently, my abiding passion for art, drawing, and painting has been a constant undercurrent.
Eight years ago, I decided to redirect a significant portion of my time and energy towards my painting endeavours. My artistic focus has primarily honed in on capturing the essence of my surroundings, particularly the landscapes of Lincolnshire. In recent years, my artistic narrative has evolved, incorporating figures into my compositions to infuse life, movement, and action.
An active participant in the artistic community, I am a proud member of the Lincolnshire Artist Society, Nadin Art Group, and Lincolnshire’s Art on the Map.
My works find a home at The Little Red Gallery in Lincoln and Victoria Hall, Oakham. I have showcased my art at various esteemed venues, including Lincoln Cathedral, Doddington Hall, Marshchapel Arts Exhibition, Gunby Hall, Patchings Art Centre, Sam Scorer Gallery, The Usher Gallery, and Grimsby Heritage Centre.
Over the past year, my artistic journey has witnessed significant growth, marked by bespoke commissions for diverse clients.
