Lorelle Rau Studios

I have hired Lorelle Rau to work on several projects, as well as seen her work done for many clients. Her experience in hanging and promoting shows is of the highest quality. Her display work is well-thought-out and well-designed. I have seen her take displays that were crowded and amateurish and turn them into highly professional exhibits. She is one of only a few people I would blindly trust to do any type of promotion for me, whether hanging, lighting, or promoting a show, knowing I would get excellent work in a timely manner. I also trust her opinions and value her suggestions—Her work in galleries and art businesses, as well as her own art business, give her unique insight into the worlds of both the artist and the client, understanding what each needs and wants.

Lorelle is a true professional whose knowledge and expertise are essential for us when working with clients looking to purchase and install fine art pieces. She listens to clients wants and styles to help source pieces that fit their tastes as well as the design of the home. She's organized, thorough and a breeze to work with - I highly recommend Lorelle!

I commissioned Lorelle for a 2-piece 8x10 collage set a few years ago as a gift to my father. She has a lovely way of taking an outdoor landscape and turning into a beautiful piece of art that can catch your eye differently every time you look at it! My father and I have been to several ski towns over the years and I thought it would be really neat to incorporate some of the mountain maps into the collages. I didn't have much input besides that, but she made 2 beautiful collages that were exactly what I wanted. The layering of color and detail made just came together perfect! It was a great gift to give. Naturally I needed to have my own pieces from Lorelle to look at everyday, so I purchased a print from one of her personal collections to look at in my on home everyday! I have to also mention her fantastic framing skills. Prior to the commission, she helped me frame a ink fish print that was on rice paper. It was a gift from someone and I had no idea where to even start with it. She helped me pick the right frame and the appropriate preservation method to keep it in great shape over the years. I would have never thought of that! She's been my go-to for frame picking with any art I've purchased ever since. No if only she still lived in Richmond! But, she's been super easy work with via phone and email even though we don't live in the same city. She never hesitates to help me when I need her expertise on anything art!

Lorelle and I worked together on numerous art exhibits. Lorelle exhibited a very high degree of professionalism, knowledge and a wonderful sense style and attention to detail. I would recommend Lorelle to anyone requiring her talents curating art. including installation and hosting any art event.

Amazing collages and an eye for great art all around. Have commissioned pieces for family members that of course turned out great. Very professional, you will not be disappointed!

My boyfriend and I recently moved into a new apartment and wanted to redecorate and find some new art pieces. Lorelle was extremely helpful and made the entire process enjoyable! Lorelle was able to blend both our tastes to help us find the best pieces for our home.

Lorelle is great! I was looking for a big focal piece for my living room above my fireplace. She helped me find the perfect piece! She took the time to get to know me and my aesthetic and presented me with a few different options. Lorelle has an eye for design and is easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her and plan to use her for my next project!
