Rachel Meehan  and Peacock Illustration

Trained as a fine art printmaker, I completed my postgraduate studies at Glasgow School of Art and I now work from my studio in the Scottish Borders.  My art work is inspired by the colours of nature and a vivid imagination. I also have a keen interest in nature and the environment which is reflected in my love of gardening and plants. Many of my images are based on plants from my own garden.  I love going out and selecting subject matter for my next piece of work.

As well as a keen interest in plants I also have a love of exotic and colourful birds and sometimes combine these with my plant drawings.

Working with both traditional printmaking processes such as lino cuts and drypoint etchings I also  use scraperboard for much of my creative practice.  This allows me to  draw working from black to white before the colours are added. Complex pieces can take several weeks to complete.

As well as producing a range of unique art works, both open and limited edition prints,  I also use my designs on a range of products available online and in selected outlets.  These include, cards prints, kitchen linens and silk scarves.   All my products are made with carefully selected production partners in the UK.

I live with my husband, in a house situated well above sea level where we grow much of our own food and, when the sun shines, we generate our own electricity.

I love reading (especially end of the world novels!) and in my spare time I also write young adult fiction.  I also check my garden and surrounding areas regularly for signs of triffids......
