Rachel Winter

She harnesses the powers of the rainbow in her work.
A party for the eyes!
Based in Montreal, Rachel’s career has taken her around the world, and she has a deep background in the creative industries. After studying fashion and working as a pattern designer in the US and Canada, she moved to Europe and became an illustrator living in London, Dublin and Paris.
Street fashion, people watching, feminism and a mix of cultures constantly feed her with inspiration. Clients remark on the energy, enthusiasm and creativity that goes into everything she creates.
Rachel has a degree in Illustration from the École de Création Visuelle in Paris, adding to her training in fashion design and costuming.
Approach
First, Rachel opens herself to a range of ideas and inspirations to find the right concept. Then, free and messy pencil sketching that explores various visual approaches is followed by digital work in Procreate to refine the piece and hone the palette and patterning to hit the perfect tone.Style
Bold and colourful, and full of patterns and layers, Rachel’s images convey humour, rebellion and quirkiness, as well as more subtle emotional themes.Languages
Rachel is fluent in English and French.Rachel Winter
