Rosemarie translates empty canvas into an experience. Compositions begin with an adventure; she works outdoors or combines field work with studio time. Rosemarie is currently working on a series which depicts rural life in Dufferin County and the Headwaters region; to represent the life and work of an agricultural era which formed the foundation of this region we know and love.

Rosemarie is exploring the use of a limited palette while expressing the subject with movement and emotion. She works primarily with acrylic paints though recent paintings involve oils in the final phase, a technique which leads to moving and textured canvases. Her paintings, sketches and commissioned works can be found in many homes or private collections throughout Ontario and abroad.
