About  the Artist

In short, I love rocks, sticks, and shiny things... but let me expand on that a bit:

 

My name is Rachel Wittschen, an artist and metalsmith located in Cape May New Jersey. For as long as I can remember, I've been fascinated by the limitless nature of art and creativity, and would try out any medium that crossed my path. In my college years, while attending Ducret School of Art, I discovered some of my favorite methods, being lost wax sculpting and metalsmithing. The  durability inherent to precious metals and materials that could stand the test of time captured my focus and I've worked in that area primarily ever since. I find most of my inspiration in subjects found in nature, fantasy, and timeless vintage work. Along with my wearable art, I also dabble in mediums such as drawing, painting, and sculpting. I can't wait to expand my portfolio to show my full range of interest and inspirations!

 

If my work strikes any inspiration for you, feel free to reach out and share!
