Rebecca Santry

Working with acrylics on canvas and paper, Rebecca captures the layered movement and quiet majesty of the Pacific Northwest. Inspired by her daily immersion in nature, her abstract works reflect the forms, textures, and rhythms of her surroundings. Originally from the UK, her move to Squamish, BC sparked a deep connection to the region's landscape and creative community, which continues to shape her practice. Through her art, Rebecca explores nature as both inspiration and therapy, a space to reflect, play, and invite viewers into a shared sense of calm and wonder.


Artist Statement

Soft Fascination

This series explores our deep connection to nature and the calming energy we experience when we immerse ourselves in it. I aim to echo nature's rhythms, textures, and quiet invitations to slow down, translating them into abstract forms that draw us into a state of restoration. My work captures the spectrum of emotions felt outdoors, from soothing to invigorating, through color, movement, and form.

A central theme is soft fascination, the effortless attention we give to nature's gentle phenomena, offering space for our minds to breathe and reconnect. Fluid, layered brushstrokes and a palette grounded in soft whites, deep charcoals, rich raw umbers, and earthy red iron oxide create a visual meditation that reflects nature's healing power.

This series is a celebration of the healing, creative, and transformative power of nature, and an invitation to remember the beauty that arises when we simply slow down and observe.
