Rosie is a self-taught Western Australian artist whose loose and expressive style is reflected in her use of acrylics and oils. Having spent 13 years living in the UK, Rosie’s work has been influenced by her time living and travelling abroad, particularly through her appreciation of interiors, collected objects and the stories they hold.
Her personal interior style is layered and curated, with an appreciation for subjects that evoke a sense of nostalgia and connection. This sensibility flows into her paintings, which explore everyday objects and figurative subjects inspired by personal experiences, memories and significant moments.
Often playful and nostalgic, Rosie’s compositions invite viewers to connect with her subjects while leaving space for their own memories and interpretations.

Description
I Was a Million Miles Away is a whimsical series of windows that transport the viewer to memories of places far, far away. Through colour and mixed media, Rosie evokes a sense of wistful nostalgia and longing.
Playful and personal, the works invite viewers to connect with their own memories and experiences of exploration. Each window offers a glimpse into the artist’s recollections while leaving room for curiosity and imagination.
Together, the works ask a quiet question: what lies behind the curtain?

Description
When I think of the matriarchs who inspire me, I think of women who are strong, fierce and protective, yet also soft, nurturing and warm.
The Matriarch is an ode to female strength and empowerment. The pelican stares at the viewer with an unwavering gaze, commanding attention while embodying both strength and quiet tenderness. Her presence is protective and assured, reflecting the many qualities of the matriarchs who have inspired me.
