She aims to explore and capture the mood, emotion, colours of the place filtered through the sands of lapsed time.

Rosanne explores and captures the mood, emotion, colours of a place, a landscape filtered through the sands of lapsed time. She graduated in 2003 from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art with First Class Honours. Roseanne uses heightened colours, simplified shape and blending lines to form the basis of her distinctive abstract style. Her pieces are imaginary but based on direct experience of the Atlantic seaboard of North-West Scotland and Orkney.

 

Her work is inspired by with the memory she has of the landscape, and the impression it has on her is the concept at the heart of Rosanne's work. She aims to explore and capture the mood, emotion, colours of the place filtered through the sands of lapsed time.  These are imagined places based on direct experience from her childhood growing up in the North West of Scotland and Orkney. Heightened colours of sunrise, sunset and amid storm along with simplified shape are the basis of her distinctive abstract style.
