Artist’s bio
Rebecca Taylor is a contemporary British artist based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. She primarily works with acrylic paint and then incorporates different mediums, including graphite, spray paint, salt, and suminagashi, to explore themes of everyday life.
She studied Fine Art at A-Level at Greenhead College, pursued an art foundation at Leeds College Of Art, and then paused her artistic development while studying at University and navigating the world of work.
In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Taylor reengaged with her creative practices, starting with her 10-year-old art equipment and a ream of a3 printer paper.
Today, she has developed an intuitive collage-like style of painting that fuses sensory elements from moments in time. Each artwork can be decoded to tell a story from Taylor’s perspective.
