Acrylic & mixed media artist
Hiya! I'm Rhea, the self-taught artist behind Paint by Rhi. This journey began when I rediscovered my love for making art, and it has since grown into something more. I'm incredibly proud to share these finished pieces with you as I take another step towards my goal of becoming a full-time creator.
I currently create acrylic and mixed media work. Thank you for exploring my art and supporting my dream
From a young age, I've loved art in all its forms — music, fashion, books, and making things with my hands. Long before I picked up a paintbrush, sketching and colored pencil drawings were my first love.
After years away from creating, everything changed when I painted a birthday gift for a close friend. The process felt so therapeutic and deeply rewarding in a way I hadn't experienced in a long time. What began as a personal outlet quickly became a reignited passion, inspiring me to pursue something more.
I truly believe art, in all its creative forms, can comfort, guide, and inspire people through difficult times, and that everyone should have access to that experience. By sharing my work, I hope to encourage others to carve out space for creativity and find inspiration.
As I continue this self-taught journey, I'm looking forward to expanding into other mediums, like watercolor, oil paint, and gouache, and to launching art prints and stickers from my original work as each collection comes together.
“Art is to console those who are broken by life.”
— Vincent Van Gogh
