A love which, alike the cactus, holds its shape while always growing.\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eRebecca Abbey creates from the inside out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Frankston-based artist came to painting through personal catharsis — and found something far greater waiting: a radiant, unfolding spiritual exploration that has shaped every brushstroke since. That inward journey is visible in her work. Vibrant, layered and instinctual, her abstract paintings pulse with colour, movement and meaning — expressions of renewal, expansion and transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWorking under her practice Colour and Flow, Rebecca draws on a rich and interwoven life — a background in Healthcare and Colour Design, training in Colour Therapy, Energy Healing and Crystal Sound Therapy, and a family legacy in painting that literally lives in her work, with remnants of paint from her family's Painting and Decorating business folded into her mixed media pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMotifs and symbols arise in her art both deliberately and organically — what Rebecca describes as light language — a thread she traces, in part, to her Māori heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eHer work doesn't just hang on a wall.
