About me

Hi there. It’s great to see you here.

Rebecca Taylor, Copywriter And Painter Holding A Cat

Hi there, my name’s Rebecca, but most people call me Bex.

Between nine and five, I write pretty words for brands. Then, between five and nine, I paint pretty pictures and sell prints and stickers through my online shop.

Over the years, I’ve worked with global brands and independent startups, including Aldi, Gym King, Clipper Logistics, Well Pharmacy, The Car People, Vintage Cash Cow, Roberts Bakery, ReFood, Lupton Fawcett, St. Moriz, Magna Colours, Lambrini, Subaru, Mercedes, Illamasqua, Neal & Wolf, Urban Undergrowth and The Buy It Direct Group.

After studying at Leeds College Of Art in 2010, I took a hiatus from the art world. I touched neither a paintbrush nor paint pot for 10-years. Just by chance, I watched Banksy’s documentary, Exit Through The Gift Shop during the UK’s first covid lockdown of 2020. And this inspired me to dig out my crusty old art supplies and begin to play. Today, I blend colours and textures with realism and surrealism, to explore a range of topics.

When I’m neither writing nor painting, you’ll find me snowboarding, gardening, playing percussive guitar, baking vegan goodies or practising Muay Thai. Hi-ya! You’ll also find me clicking around on Instagram and Pinterest.

Fancy a chat?

Ping me a message using this form, and I’ll reply when I get a mo’.

I love to hear people’s thoughts about my paintings.

Escher. I’m going to call you Escher because you bend my eyes.
