Right As Rain Eclectic: Maine Art For Home and Heart

Rachel Ingrid Robbins
Whispers of the forest, painted in stardust and soul.
I'm Maine artist Rachel Robbins. Inspired by the rich jewel-tones of Maine's coast and woods, I paint intuitive spiritual portraiture and luminous landscapes. Each piece is made with intention, their ethereal presence and biophilic beauty opening a door to quiet reflection in every space they inhabit. My work is held in private collections, juried gallery exhibitions, spas, wellness centers, fine dining establishments, and luxury retreats throughout New England. In addition to my studio practice, I’m a certified art therapy practitioner, HarperCollins author, and a college instructor. Art is home, home is healing. Let's share a creative journey together.
What's Brewing in the Teapot: More Veil & Vision Soul Portraits! There is a still, soft voice within us waiting to be heard. My Veil & Vision Portraits are intuitive fine art commissions of your spiritual guardians. Rooted in your personal story, I use symbolism and layered imagery to bring your inner world to life. Each custom painting comes with a written reflection of the messages that emerged, alongside a name and a personal ritual for your artwork. This deep process is informed by my 40 years of practice in tarot, astrology, and dream interpretation, supported by formal psychology.
June, finally. I've been restless since autumn, and am treating myself to an "art and soul retreat" at Camp Etna (Spiritualist community in Northern-ish Maine) coinciding with their 150th Anniversary Fair. On June 27, from 10-3, I'll have a booth full of my favorite things, on the lovely shores of Lake Etna, in the magical fairy woods, joined by Miss Chickpea Creations and her "cuddle moons" Please come galavant! Coastal? I have three pieces at the ECC Gallery in Portland; the Pride exhibit is opening during First Friday from 5-8. To celebrate this launch, my featured paintings are priced well below my standard gallery rates, with 15% of all sales going directly to support the Equality Community Center.
As always, you can reach me via Facebook, Instagram, or email:

Yours,
Rachel

![Also, I started a pregnant pastel forest lady-creature out at Lake St. George today. Perfect water, perfect weather, perfect afternoon...until I ran out of eraser!
[Said bare bones of goddess waiting right here on the spiral pad, leaning against a tree in the Liberty breeze. Will work on her tonight...and tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.]
While working with my friend Becky, chatting about what I was doing on all fours, massaging pastel onto the pad while in some semblance of Bharmanasana (yoga-speak for 'table top' pose) all sunk down into the ground, grateful for 'Flick the Tick Spray', I told her that this is what I keep PLANNING to share during the future Drawing Down the Spirit workshops I keep promising myself I'll start teaching.
I swear that in [early] classes we would not be down on the ground, though we WILL explore my somatic process so you can truly connect with your inner artist.
And not be discouraged by the messy beginnings, like this rough fairy-goddess-lady.
Please message me if this is something that would interest you down the road. Once I have five participants, I'm going to make good on my promise.

![This is untitled; I found her stuck under some books where I'd been pressing to lay flat before finishing. Tonight she got eyelashes and I gave the dragonfly some wings. Ink, mica, charcoal, matboard. IG will shadowban me if I keep posting, but my stuff doesn't have much reach ANYWAY, and I'm having fun finishing up my misfit toys [this is 8x12] to sell at the Etna Festival next weekend.

![Guess who has the night off? I am so happy to have "studio" [art room] time that I'm letting myself do something goofy...prefab wood coutouts. Of mermaids. I shoulda taken pics of the before "Rachelizing" but it just occured to me to do a midway. It's actually BEFORE alcohol dries when it looks most awesome. I'm going to make these double-sided but haven't decided if the "B-Side" should look like the same body or a whole different mermaid so a collector gets two pieces by just flipping her over. Thoughts?

!["Once[Upon A Time]". What in the Lisa Frank? For those who love unicorns and angels in fields of vetch and timothy, we have an mixed media piece: Pastel, alcohol ink, mica spray, acrlic detail. I may have to slap some gold leaf on there depending on how forgiving the paper feels when the sparkle hardens. #fantasyart #unicorn #angel #dreamcore #1980s](https://scontent-den2-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.82787-15/684945423_18106776212508804_7321778726954687708_n.heic?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=102&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiRkVFRC5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=k75Xm53wqfEQ7kNvwGABIPT&_nc_oc=AdpgJb3YPtv6s4yQKyNBvn8NzUGcpp_iSMstlOcgc6hCV-slsC-okvd5r21DAxDNnDo&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-den2-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=6n7os-XbUBSoRx17bPGImw&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQF8YVin3jE2ZJYcLEa7RhWM7z838TaIUTHQZCU8BWyC2-jEc3AIqKYNRcI5-CGttRFcoTo33-ah&oh=00_AQAR2Hn35jzpokFJkf4HAlxT9kC2EGz52MVqgX-eS-AdyA&oe=6A5BAA73)
