Each month, I showcase one of my amazing Ignite members and award them with the Member of the Month title. They may have been chosen for their kindness towards other members, the support they've given, the hard work they've done in the membership or for outstanding artistic achievements.
Introducing our Member of the Month for November, the wonderful Rachel McMahon! 🥰
Originally from Derbyshire, Rachel moved to Canada with her husband in 2007 and now lives on beautiful Vancouver Island with their Bernedoodle, Tobler!
Rachel has loved art since childhood and first discovered my teaching when her sister sent her a link to my free Robin draw-along, which she decided to give a go!
After joining Coloured Pencil Week in May 2025, Rachel loved the teaching and community so much that she joined Ignite! Since then, she's completed the Foundations Course, explored lots of tutorials and regularly enjoys Art Club, Confidence Sessions and Bonny Unfiltered.
Drawing has become a lovely way for Rachel to relax, enjoy some time for herself and create artwork she's proud of. She describes our Ignite community as one big family, which is wonderful to hear!
And with her birthday coming up in November, there's even more reason to celebrate!
Congratulations Rachel, so well deserved! ❤️
Congratulations to our November member of the month!
