Bio
I have found beauty, happiness, and self-expression in all forms of art since starting to draw and paint at the age of four.
I am a contemporary acrylic/mixed media painter. A graduate of the George Washington University in Liberal & Fine Arts,, a masters in Recreational Therapy from North Eastern University, as well as attending graduate courses painting, drawing and sculpture from at the Boston Museum School.
I briefly had my own Art Gallery “La Mermaid Gallery D’Art, 323 Worth Ave, Palm Beach, Florida before moving to Los Angeles 20 years ago.
I have quite a few celebrity collectors as well as donated and collaborated with many charitable organizations including The American Cancer Society, The Race to Erase MS, The American Heart Association, City of Hope, The March of Dimes, The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and others.
I had been represented by the AC Art Gallery at 1546 N. Highland Hollywood, which sponsored my one woman art show and charity fundraiser for the City of Hope “Egyptian Deities & Pop Culture Icons “June 1-June 15, 2018. After the gallery lost their lease my work is now showcased online at My Artist Website: RachelGanzArtist.com
I have published two editions of my adult coloring book: “Color Me Now! 1.2.3 The Beautiful Pin-Up Girls of the 1940’s-1950’s”
My book is a tribute to all mothers and an escape to the Post WW2 a time of peace and contentment, available on Amazon.
I have been a freelance entertainment writer for over 20 years, since moving to LA. I really enjoy attending and covering celebrity endorsed charity fundraisers.
I am currently considering several charities to donate a percentage of my jewelry sales or establish my own foundation.
After seeing the premiere of ‘’Slumbdog Millionaire” in November 2008. I have become obsessed with the terrible abuse that many of these beautiful, innocent orphaned children in India face daily and would love to transport them to the US to be adopted by a loving family.
Thanks so much for your interest & support
