Rosemary was born on the River Murray and raised in rural South Australia. She currently lives and paints out of her Goodwood home studio. Her extensive travels in both Australia and overseas provide Rosemary with a rich source of inspiration.
“My contemporary paintings are drenched in colour, influenced by the natural world- they echo colours and forms I’ve seen, remembered or contrived from my travels over time. I paint with saturated colours using mixed media, markings, surface scratching’s and motifs in an intuitive process towards an unknown outcome. I want the colours in my paintings to echo within us, to awaken that feeling of ‘aliveness’ that can become hidden and forgotten in our daily grind.”
