2026
Rebekah Sunshine Open Studio & 
Gallery Shows

By Rebekah Sunshine

As part of The Shellfish Bastard Show

A story of cringe & crabs. 

​

​Lots of people never ever see art work of all kinds being made.  From painting to music, from books being written or stand up comedy planned out. The finished pieces, just seem to appear in the world perfectly edited, presented, full formed & ready for consumption.

I believe if more people saw behind the scenes, the working out & struggles then more people would feel confident to follow their own creative impulses, not judge themselves so harshly & back themselves a little bit more. 

To help with this demystifying, thwarting & wishful thinking, TWBGallery for the rest of 2026 is partly being turned into an OPEN STUDIO.  Visitors are welcome to see the work & workings of Rebekah Sunshine.  On display are works in progress, drawings, original paintings & photographs.

​​

Works will be on display at all stages of development, some new, some old, some in limbo & some in no-mans land. The good, the bad & the ugly in various states of undress & redress. There will be opportunities to talk about the process and background to how a work is made & when it finally can be finished having undergone the rigours of harsh editing, surreal twists & fragmented symbolism.

Importantly a chance to share experiences of how creatives (and people in general) work hard to overcome limiting beliefs, imposter syndrome & creative fears.

The OPEN STUDIO EXHIBITION aims to show visitors that mindset, self reflective experimentation, decision making, curiosity & bravery to keep showing up for our creative selves is nearly the most important part in making a piece of art.
