Rachel Bender
Featured Artist
Painter Rachel Bender is featured at the Highline Heritage Museum October 1-December 31, 2025 in an exhibit titled Polygon Party, a vibrant exploration of the playful possibilities of abstraction through bold lines, sharp angles, and saturated hues.
“Color is joy; life should embrace the bold and the whimsical. I’m obsessively drawn to bright color palettes, sharp lines, and geometric shapes. I enjoy creating colorful landscapes with prismatic elements, often inspired by my travels,” she said.
“I paint on stretched canvases, cradled wood panels, or cotton paper. I prefer acrylic, gouache, and watercolor paints, and then seal/protect each piece with varnish and/or other mediums,” she continued.
