As an artist, Rakela creates paintings that speak not only to herself, but also to others about the beauty that surrounds us. In every work she creates, emotion is the guiding force. Through her paintings, she shares her sensations sadness, joy, tranquility, and the many feelings that shape the human experience. When she paints, she allows her emotions to flow freely. Each brushstroke becomes a reflection of what is felt in that moment. She dips her brushes into her soul, translating her inner truth onto the canvas, with the hope that those who encounter her work will find a part of their own emotions reflected within it.
An echo of something felt, yet not always spoken.
