Original Wildlife - Pet & Equine Art
Hello, I’m Rachel Stubbs, a pet and wildlife artist based in beautiful Mid-Devon, UK. I create original paintings and drawings inspired by animals — from majestic horses and wild creatures to much-loved pets. I’m also an experienced sand sculptor, bringing large-scale, ephemeral works to life at festivals and events across the UK and Europe.
Every piece I create is driven by a deep love of animals and a desire to capture their spirit and character. Whether you’re drawn to one of my originals or wish to commission a bespoke portrait, my goal is to create something truly meaningful and lasting.



Kind words about my work

My wife surprised me at Xmas with a picture Rachel had done of our English Springer Spaniel, Strider in coloured pencils. I honestly thought it was a photograph at first! It is so beautiful and the best present I have ever received.
It hangs over our fireplace in the lounge and we get so many lovely comments when people visit. Rachel takes great pride in her work and communication is superb. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for her beautiful work.

I found Rachel on Facebook last year and knew immediately that I wanted to commission a portrait. She was prompt with communication. I was able to send her ideas right away of what we were looking for. Working with Rachel was so easy!! She encouraged us to provide feedback as the portrait came together.
We couldn't be happier with how it turned out! Having Rachel capture our pups (one of which we lost to cancer) was so special. We will treasure this always!!
