I have a significant impairment in interoception and had a broken bone in the middle of my head for 35 years; I just thought bone on bone pain was what it felt like to have a head.
In high school, I lettered in math and two mental health professionals later labeled me a “savant” in physics.
I graduated from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette with Honors curriculum in 2005 and chose a Bachelor of General of Studies (B.G.S.) in Arts and Humanities to create a degree in Humanities coursework. The focus of my studies was comparative religion.

Rachel Bright
Rachel is a writer of words, drawer of pictures and champion of silver linings. She exhibits widely, writes tirelessly and frequently creates slightly unhinged characters.

Her written work includes children’s stories and poems, clever advertising copy and lots of other stuff besides. Her illustrative work is a smorgasboard of giant, hand-printed poems, mind-bogglingly detailed gouache illustrations and a cacophony of quirky prints and etchings.
She explores the lovliness of words and the magic of pictures, revelling in a world of jam-eating miniature bears and other made-up animals.
Her work aims to capture a free way of thinking - one which makes you feel anything is possible, a feeling all too easily lost with the end of childhood. When we’r -
