Welcome

Rachel Pierce is a lifelong artist and long-time TV journalist who recently left the anchor desk to focus full-time on her artwork. ​ ​ Based in Sanibel Island, Florida, Rachel paints bright, modern original art in oil and acrylic reflecting the natural beauty and abundant wildlife found only in tropical Southwest Florida. ​ From her abstract beachscapes to her joyful underwater tableaus, Rachel's colorful coastal creations feature swimming sea creatures - like loggerhead turtles, manatee, jellyfish, sharks, seahorses and octopi; soaring shorebirds and wading flamingos; technicolor palm trees and florals; gators, mollusks, mermaids, and more. ​ "I'm a happy, positive person and I think it comes through in my artwork. When you see one of my pieces, I hope it makes you smile!" ​ Rachel sells and exhibits her fine art originals at the Rachel Pierce Art Gallery located in Sanibel Island, Florida, as well as on her website, ByRachelPierce.com, along with a variety of collectible prints and notecards. ​ During her time as a trusted TV news anchor, Rachel gathered a large and supportive fanbase, and her social media following across Facebook, lnstagram and YouTube continues growing day by day, piece by piece. ​ She is a prolific painter, and occasionally, she livestreams her painting sessions to enthusiastic online audiences, combining her artistic talents with her extensive on-camera experience. ​ While Rachel plans to continue painting every single day - living a dream she set aside many moons ago - she envisions continued creative collaboration with other innovative artisans and investors on everything from limited edition collections in high-end boutiques and galleries to wearable art, homewares, and accessories available in select department stores.
