About Me:
oakland native, frida fanatic, artist, teacher

Oakland native Rachel-Anne Palacios is a self-taught, multicultural artist who far exceeds the multidimensional horizons of her creativity. Each of her colorful art, craft and accessory pieces exudes a gentle yet provocative reflection of who she is—a woman full of light, joy, gratitude and grace. There’s an ancient yet contemporary boldness to her work—deep, rich colors celebrating the Spirit of Mexico, harmoniously clashing and crashing to embrace the mysteries of life, death and rebirth. Having made art since childhood, today Rachel still expresses with a childlike wonder and innocence—even though her pieces reflect the deep and humble respect she has for culture, religion, traditional values, the elders, and the cycle of life and death. Sometimes subtle, sometimes startling, each work holds a piece of her personal story, and a piece of her Soul. to read more go here:

I believe that Frida is one of those rare spirits, that stays around us women, as a reminder of "what not to do" in relationship with others...and what to do...to transcend the pain and suffering...she was never a victim...always a survivor of so much tragedy and beyond anything else...such passion, I have never seen it before in one person...well may be in Isabel Allende...she is my other muse. We share the "alcoba/casa azul" because we share her roots. It is all One and connected to our core...I am thankful for everything, her beauty, yours...our work...art itself...eternal gratitude.

Hi Rachel-Anne (que bonita nombre),

I found a few scraps of aluminum left over in my husbands workshop and had the idea to try to work with it... it took a lot of trial and error to get the right depth on each impression so it wouldn't punch all the way through, I'm still figuring it out.

I just started my next tree... I really like working with this medium but I am working my way back to my first love of clay. (I wish I had more time to get all these ideas out of my head!)

Thank you for the feedback, I enjoyed looking at your website the other day. Your work is so honest and meaningful... keep doing what you are doing lady... I hope to see it someday in person too.

You have inspried me to get working on my project now... have a great day! :)
