Rachel O’Connell

I am a multi-media marbling artist, a sustainable maker and an educator. I marble on paper, textiles, including leather, and on wood. I love the diversity of marbling, creating leather goods, wearable textile art, home decor, lighting and stationery. Marbling is a surface pattern originating in Japan over a thousand years ago and is now seen as an endangered craft.

WORKSHOPS

If you are keen to learn how to marble, I tutor workshops in my own studio, in local galleries and at events. I enjoy demonstrating in schools, galleries and museums throughout the UK. I am also a tutor at West Dean Art College.

External venue workshop information and dates for upcoming events can be found on my NEWS + EVENTS + VENUE WORKSHOPS page.

HOW TO SHOP

I make to order, shipping 3-4 weeks from order and 6-8 weeks for larger trade orders. You will see a gallery of past makes, which can be custom made to suit you.

My shop will offer one of a kind, limited batch runs ready for shipping. I announce the shop drop via email. Personalisation and gift wrap are complimentary, just ask!

KEEP IN THE KNOW

Sign up to my monthly newsletter to be first to receive dates for my studio workshops, before they are announced on social media. These will be bookable from 10 August via STUDIO WORKSHOPS page. I occasionally send emails to remind you about upcoming events and workshops.

Get in touch for trade terms if you’re interested in stocking my work in your shop. I am happy to create a bespoke colour/pattern range for you.

In a fast moving world, I like to think I am the quiet voice saying, “slow made, it’s worth the wait...”
