Rachael Stone is a Hawke’s Bay based multidisciplinary artist whose work bursts with colour, joy, and playful storytelling. Her art blends delicate linework with bold, candy toned shapes that transform walls into uplifting, feel good spaces.

Inspired by thrifted treasures, vintage fabrics, and nostalgic 80s and 90s design, Rachael describes her style as “eclectic op shop meets Club Tropicana.” Working with Resene paints, she creates everything from fine art prints to large MDF sculptures, each infused with warmth and character.

As a full time mum and artist, Rachael often draws from personal experiences, exploring themes of self worth and authenticity. In collaboration with YDS Studio, her vibrant shapes and affirming words have been reimagined as wall decals, printed in New Zealand using environmentally friendly materials celebrating colour, creativity, and positivity in every space.
