About Rosemary Scott

Just over ten years ago I made a decision to take early retirement and relocate to southern Spain, in the beautiful province of Murcia. Here one can experience all of the  season each day! Winter snow on the mountains in the early morning , Spring flowers in the garden at coffee time, Summer sun on the sea at midday and Autumn later in the day when the log fire was needed!

I picked up my brushes again after a long break. The support of a local group of local artists increased my enjoyment and for several years I enjoyed life drawing classes with good friends, exhibiting in the local town.

Light and colour are the most important influences on my art.Travelling across Spain with its huge landscapes, each province completely different in its terrain, light and colours provided a myriad of subjects. The terracotta colours Cuenca, the White  windmills in Toledo against turquoise skies, the sunlight and shadows of the ancient cities!

After ten years I have returned to East Anglia to live. Now I have the inspiration of giant fenland skies reflected in the water ways. An entirely different light and set of colours!

I use oil, acrylic and pastel in my work. I particularly enjoy the vibrant clear colours of pastel. Always striving to improve I take inspiration from varied workshops. Currently I am enjoying working on larger canvases in Acrylic and mixed media in a looser form.

I am a member of Ely Art lovers Workshop. In 2015 I exhibited in three exhibitions in the Babylon gallery and in the Ely Art Society summer Exhibition. The Babylon Gallery is currently hosting our latest exciting exhibition.
