Rachel Doren is best known for her arresting, patterned metallic portraits and abstract artwork that she paints with pressed mica pigments, metallic oil paint, and acrylic paint. Rachel was born in NYC in 1992, got her BFA in Art and Psychology from The University of Texas school system, and currently lives and works in Colorado. Rachel has exhibited at The Museum of Fine Arts Houston, The Museum of Boulder, and Mirus Gallery.

Rachel draws inspiration from her experiences as a queer, Latin-American woman with Alopecia Universalis (autoimmune hair loss). She transmutes her experiences through her meditative and intuitive painting process which translates into spiritual experiences for the viewer. She is influenced by nature, Japanese and Indian calligraphy, and abstract surrealism. Rachel makes art to empower, to spread awareness, and as a healing meditation.
