Rachel Pontious
Rachel Pontious is an artist based in Detroit, who moved from New York a number of years ago. When she progressed in her art education, she became interested in more cerebral, surreal subjects. Influenced by French movies, kaleidoscopes, and the students she teaches, you rarely see a clear picture of a human face in her art. If you want to learn more about Rachel, check out her website RachRach.com, or her Instagram @RachelPontious_Studio.
