Watercolor Artist and Teacher
I’m a watercolor artist and teacher in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania.
My goal is to equip, encourage, and empower – to help you to learn to paint detailed, realistic subjects in watercolor and use these techniques to develop your own unique style.

“Just wanted to say that I have watched through Part three of the Westie painting and it is extremely enjoyable and learning a great deal… I love the way you layered the eyes and your explanation and narration is very explicit and understanding of what you are doing… thank you! Love watching you paint… I think it would be a great idea for you to move to NYC and open up the REBECCA RHODES SCHOOL OF ANIMAL PORTRAITS IN WATERCOLOR… and if you needed it, which you probably wouldn’t, I would gladly hand out flyers on the street corner.”

“I’ve just finished Rebecca’s free course (the dog’s eye) and was amazed by my resulting painting. I’ve never painted anything this realistic before and Rebecca’s lessons made it so easy to follow the process from start to finish.”

Rebecca is one of the best teachers. Her classes are worth so much! I started with zero experience and have now painted several pet portraits for clients. This class is well worth the money! Do not hesitate to join!

“I started painting during our first lock-down by joining an online school. I began to look for an online school that taught animal portrait painting. I found Rebecca’s website and joined her school and am so delighted that I did. The tutorials are just great. With Rebecca’s help, we can all produce amazing masterpieces to be proud of. I had just retired from a very busy life and was looking for something fulfilling to occupy my time, while not really knowing what that might be. Thank you Rebecca for making it so easy to transition into my new life. I love what I do now and am always thinking about my next project, a portrait for a friend, a gift card, etc. I have still got a lot to learn but the journey ahead is so exciting. I have made some friends through Rebecca’s school. Rebecca is an amazing teacher and fabulous artist. Thanks Rebecca for being so patient with all of us.”
