About me

Rachelle is an American illustrator, artist, and writer living in the Netherlands whose cartoons and comics have appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, and The Austin Chronicle. Her artwork is distinctive in its expressive line, harmonious color palettes, sensitivity, and humor, and her multimedia art project, Faces on the Ferry, marked her return to the world of fine arts while also capturing the attention of media outlets such as Het Parool, Flow Magazine, and The Guardian. She can usually be found either at her home, in her studio in Amsterdam Noord, or riding her bike between these two places. She loves to travel, read books, and draw people when they're not looking. She lives with one husband, one son, one oversized tomcat, and two wild rabbits.
