Rachel's Artist Statement:

I never had many friends. Art is my friend. At recess in elementary school I remember figuring out you could draw with bark, or wood chips, on cement. I made beautiful designs on the sidewalk by myself. Art has been my escape. It understands me. I want to see the beauty in the world, seen or unseen, which is why I became a photographer. “Maybe this is what I'm good at?” Art doesn’t judge me. It will always be my friend. The camera accepts anything I see.
