ROSALIND FORSTER's watercolours
and linocuts reflect the artist's passion for flowers, dramatic light and
shadow. Sometimes the image comes from a chance encounter, as seen in the
highly skilled linocuts of sunlit doorways, but more often her subject matter
is careful arrangements of flowers and favourite objects such as lace cloths
and jugs.
Rosalind Forster's first one person show was in Sydney,
Australia in 1983. Since then she has exhibited regularly, mainly in
England and Greece, where she had her first one person show Spring
Flowers and Sunlit Doorways with the Jill Yakas Gallery in May 2003.
Prior to that she participated in a two person show at the gallery in
1993. She also exhibited at British Artists in Greece in 1995
and in A British Gallery in Greece in 1998, both shows organised
by Jill Yakas as part of Britain in Greece and Britain and
Greece, two prestigious Festivals organised by the British Embassy
and British Council, Athens.
A graduate of Manchester College of Art, Rosalind
Forster - a keen gardener - now divides her
time between England and Greece.Her work is
in private and public collections worldwide. Her linocuts, drawings and
watercolours are on the cruise ships Oriana and Minerva following
commissions by P & O Lines, and Swan Hellenic. Rosalind also undertakes
private commissions.
Linocuts are 39 x 28 cm (62 x 50
cm framed)
