"Bottles & Jars" by Rae Hauck Drawing

Creative activities have always drawn my attention, from a young age I would cut, colour, hammer and create! I'm still very much like this and being involved in graphic design helped to feed my creative cravings, it gives me a desire to express myself freely. Rhythm and bold colours are my passion, so it is no wonder that they feature prominently in my work, whether I work with charcoal, a brush, pallet knife or even my fingers! I find inspiration in the Old Masters, even though my finished work ends up looking nothing like the image that inspired me. This is because I try to find the essence of the image and let it take me almost on a spiritual journey losing myself in the creative process along the way.
