Clare Rose

My fascination with people and the human condition has been the driving impetus for much of my work. My degree show was an exhibition of portraiture of fellow students in the Aberystwyth School of Art. My MA developed this theme. Portraiture is an abiding preoccupation but I am also transfixed by the effects of light on any subject and currently in particular, the Pembrokeshire landscape. I use pencil, pastel, ink and charcoal; gouache, oils and acrylics, working directly from life, from what’s in front of me. When this is not possible, I paint from sketches, memories and many photographs. I make observational drawings daily, believing that sound drawing is the ‘grammar’ of the visual language. Painting is a constantly evolving process to which I am entirely dedicated.
