ABOUT YOUR ART PRACTICE

• Painting

From an early age creativity has captured and interested me. In secondary school, Robert Juniper, my art teacher encouraged me to pursue expressing myself in this field. However, the challenge of nursing and mid-wifery, then creating a home, family and business took precedence.

Life has been full, exotic at times, with exposure to much of the world and it’s different cultures.

Now in later life, the learning and exciting journey continues with the luxury of exploring my latent creative side.

From 2015 - 2020 I studied oil and acrylic painting, blissfully creating satisfying canvases mainly of large blooms and nature.

Immersion in art and creativity, painterly expression, the joy, beauty and timelessness it brings to me is my offering, my gift to others, and my next great adventure.

Uploading your images

The process has changed a little this year;

Step 1 – Add 1 image that best represents your work for the printed Event Guide

Step 2 – Add an additional 9 artwork images and studio portraits for our marketing team

Step 3 – Add up to 10 images for your website listing – they can be the same or different to the images above

Step 4 – Add one main image for your website listing.

Each image must be 300dpi, between 2.5MB and 5MB, and formatted as a jpeg file.

Re-name all files to include your name, artwork title, year created, medium and size before uploading e.g., Jane Doe_Wild Seascapes_2018_Oil on canvas_10x10cm.

Please ensure the filenames contain only alphanumeric characters, underscores or hyphens. Special characters such as punctuation will cause the upload to fail.

Please add a photographer credit to the file name if required by the photographer.

(Note: we love to use smiling, welcoming studio portraits to promote MRROS on social media)
