Rosalind Wise takes inspiration from nature, painting scenes of flower gardens and meadows on canvases typically four to five feet across. “When I am standing in a field, a meadow, or in front of a riotously colorful garden border, I feel overwhelmed by a deep feeling of pleasure,” she says. “Smelling the fragrances, looking at the whole picture in front of me as well as the individual plants, grasses, and flowers close up . . . makes me long to paint what I am experiencing, to encapsulate all that being there means to me.”
Wise works from studies made in situ, from specimens she has collected, and from photographs she has taken. She finishes her paintings in her workshop, her observant eye and love of the natural world evident in her richly layered images.
