Bio

Rachel Tribble’s award-winning, dream-like paintings have been recognized for their meditative quality. Commissioned by corporations and private collectors, her technique is a combination of influences from early in her career, and a lifelong interest in the environment and light.

Rachel’s use of color was fine tuned while working as jewelry designer in New York. Her lifelong interest in light began to specifically describe itself in her work over several years of creating multi-media installations for her own performance art, rock nightclubs and rave productions.

Originally from Manhattan, she moved to Minneapolis in the early 1990’s. Inspired by the depth of the Minnesota winters her work took on a surrealistic edge, with a clear social and environmental message. In the mid 1990’s Rachel took a hiatus from her work as a professional artist and lived and worked among the Native American people. Since then, she has returned to her traditional training as a painter, inspired by the journey she found herself on and the mystical world of the Aninshinabe and Lakota people.

Rachel studied fine arts at Syracuse University and the National Academy of Design in New York.

She lives in South Florida, near the Atlantic Ocean.

"The serenity of deep color is like velvet. It is like staring at the stars on the darkest of nights and walking quietly through a garden during the full moon.“
