Artwork Description

Habour Play is an original painting by Australian Coastal Artist Rachel Rae.

“Joy lives in the little moments we share by the water’s edge.”

Harbour Play is a celebration of sun-filled days, salty skin and the carefree spirit of summer. With sparkling harbour blues, soft sand tones and tiny figures immersed in play, this artwork set in Nielsen Park, Sydney, captures the magic of a place where nature and city life meet in harmony. The gentle sweep of the shoreline and the calm enclosure of the netted baths invite a sense of nostalgia, connection and pure coastal delight. This piece is an ode to those treasured memories of laughter, community and simple happiness by the sea.

This original painting by Rachel Rae is painted in acrylic with a protective varnish on a deep stretched canvas, framed in Tasmanian Oak it is ready to hang.

Artist Bio

Rachel Rae has been creative throughout her life, but whilst living in Spain in an apartment overlooking the ocean she was inspired to dedicate her time to focus on her painting art practice. Being an avid traveller and walker, Rachel Rae witnesses many life moments which is the inspiration for her artwork, painting personal records of flora, fauna, people and landscapes.

Rachel Rae paints in acrylics, quickly highlighting the movement of the landscape in a stationary painting, fascinated by the movement of nature contrasting with the static man-made objects and how humans, animals and nature co-exist. However by spending the time to paint the smaller details and minutiae, it allows time for reflection during the process. Capturing personal records of the flora, fauna, people and landscapes in life’s moments creates a memory and connection to past and present experiences.

Rachel Rae creates personal paintings of past and present experiences creating memory and connection to the vibrant colour and uniqueness of the world around us.
