At 318 Art & Frame, we’re proud to celebrate local artists whose work reflects the soul of our region—and Benton, Louisiana artist Rachael Ball is a shining example. Through her creative brand, Red Ball Art, Rachael brings Louisiana’s vibrant culture to life with bold textures, vivid colors, and a style all her own.
Her work exists at the intersection of painting and sculpture. Using heavy-bodied acrylics and palette knives, she builds up her canvases with rich texture and dimension, giving each piece a tactile, sculptural presence. The result is artwork that feels as alive and layered as the landscapes and stories that inspire it.
Deeply influenced by the rich cultural heritage of Louisiana, Rachael draws from the music, folklore, nature, and architecture of the region. From the rhythmic movement of jazz to the tangled beauty of bayou cypress trees, every brushstroke and sculpted shape carries a sense of place and story. Her pieces are celebratory—playful yet grounded, colorful yet complex.
At 318 Art & Frame, we’re honored to showcase Rachael’s work and share her vision with our community. Her pieces capture the heart of Louisiana in a way that’s fresh, joyful, and completely original.
Come visit the shop to experience the energy and texture of Red Ball Art for yourself—and fall in love with the magic of the South, reimagined through Rachael’s eyes.
