Rachel Ann Austin

Portland artist Rachel Austin is inspired by the quiet beauty of gardens and her love of plants. Rachel is self taught and has been a full time artist since 2006 when, after getting a degree in finance, she realized art was probably a better path for her. She got her start on her popular map painting series and loves to collect old maps and create custom paintings for customers. Maps have a lovely way of showing us where we’ve been, where we are and where we are going.

Rachel’s studio is in the light filled upper floor of her 1926’s Portland bungalow where she is often found making, painting and shipping orders off to her amazing customers all over the world.
