Rebecca Partridge's Sky Study 6 has the ability to remove the viewer, all at once, from their physical space and into ethereality. The painting's delicately nuanced use of colour encourages a moment of contemplation.

Rebecca is an artist, writer and curator who has been exhibiting internationally since graduating from the Royal Academy Schools in 2007. 

She has been awarded residencies from The Terra Foundation for American Art, The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, The Banff Centre, CCA Andratx and The Nordic Artists Centre. She has been a lecturer at West Dean since 2012, as well as a visiting lecturer on several Fine Art courses, most recently; Brighton University, Nottingham Trent and the University of Teeside. She holds a Pgcert in Academic Practice and is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
