Rachel Romanowsky (b. 1987) is an American and British artist based in the United States. Classically trained in oil painting, she incorporates ground marble and found materials into her work, transforming fragile substances into meditations on strength and vulnerability. Her paintings explore the contradictions of beauty — where grace meets volatility, and what soothes also unsettles.

Having lived and worked in Zurich, Switzerland, Romanowsky draws from both European and American artistic traditions. The precision of her training meets the freedom of experimentation, resulting in textured, expressive landscapes that invite contemplation and unease. Influenced by Abstract Impressionism, early Impressionist gesture, and the media theories of Marshall McLuhan, she sees each painting as a living message — one that must be experienced rather than explained.

Romanowsky’s work has been exhibited internationally and is held in private collections across the United States, England, and Europe. She continues to develop a body of work examining beauty, resistance, and connection in contemporary life.
