Rosy Somerville

    Rosy received a foundation in fine art in England, and worked in graphic design before immigrating to Canada. Rosy paints in oil, acrylic and watercolour, and teaches watercolour. ‘Painting is for me a meditation. I love the challenge, the unique movements of the medium, the contrasts of control and unpredictability, the total focus it demands. I enjoy the tension between working within rules, and allowing intuition to speak. I work both en plein air and in the studio. Through the play of light and dark, of colours, shapes, textures, lines, the defined and the undefined, the stated and the implied I like to capture something of the unique essence that defines everything created’.
