Selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2025

Introducing: Past & Still
This series began with the quiet traces of childhood I found while tidying—an old toy behind a radiator, a sticker peeling from a cupboard, a marble in a drawer. These small discoveries felt like echoes, soft reminders of moments once full of meaning but now gently outgrown.
I’d felt this before—returning to my parents’ house as an adult and stumbling upon fragments of my own childhood. Now, as a parent myself, I’m seeing it from the other side.
Past & Still is a response to those tender shifts in time. Each painting holds a sense of presence—not in action, but in stillness. What’s left behind becomes quietly resonant, asking us to look again at what we thought had faded.

About the artist
Hi, I’m Rebecca—and if you’ve ever felt a quiet pull toward something ordinary, something that stopped you for a reason you couldn’t quite name, you’re in the right place.
I paint still life in oils, working with light, mood, and memory to draw out emotion in everyday things—objects that might otherwise go unnoticed, but somehow stay with us.
I work from my home studio in Tunbridge Wells, and my paintings have found their way into national exhibitions including the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. But what I care most about is creating work that feels personal—to me when I make it, and hopefully to you when you see it.
