Rachael Elwell Line Artist

I met Rachael Elwell at the weekend and was introduced to a world where the artist meets the line,

whether it takes the form of wool, pencil or other mark making objects,

Rachael seems to have it covered.

On her drawing site Rachael’s she explains that her work explores the perceptual connections between

line, form and space through contemporary drawing processes. Focussing on the relationship between

chance as an essential dimension of art, and an interest in control and structure in the composition of

image making.

For all the craft folk interested in knitting, her blog ArtYarn is worth a look and for

those of you who want to learn to Knit and are based in Manchester (or near about) check out

Rachael’s classes at the Ministry Of Craft.
