rachel manly

stvalentines-playground1
i’ve got maine on the brain today (i’m planning a trip up to portland to shoot a video with one of my favorite designing duos there) so i was excited to hear from design student rachel manly. rachel is a senior at the maine college of art and also worked as a studio assistant with the lovely karen gelardi (their work definitely shares a similar style). rachel’s work has such a nice organic vibe to it and i love the bold colors she chooses- so i thought it would be fun to share a little taste of it today before we launch into diy projects. you can contact rachel right here if you have any questions or visit her website here.

wow! I have a print that is almost IDENTICAL to the sunbursts… Only I outlined each ‘ray’. Just goes to show, great minds think alike. :) I love your work Rachel! Can’t wait to see more.
