India Rose is a fine artist based in the south of England. She works with oils to paint light on the land and water. Inspired by the rolling hills and vast Dartmoor skies that surround her, she paints vividly with an impressionistic style capturing the mood of an environment with sensitivity.
From the very beginning at age 2 I have always loved to paint. I can remember running around covered from my hands to my feet. As the years have gone on I have continued to create, always enjoying the infinite expressive possibilities the paint brush allows for.
As the moments pass by and by in our lives, its lovely to stop once in a while to think on the most dear to us. Working with oil paints with an impressionistic realistic approach, I am largely inspired by the English countryside and all that dwells therein. I paint moments from mine and others daily life and hope to bring to life the memories we hold dear, cherished moments that pass by so quickly that we wish to keep close. I am moved by the beauty that surrounds me, whether the point of interest be small or expansive, I wish to paint these intrinsic moments with sensitivity to light, colour, meaning and feeling.
I am a full time mother and wife to my adored. Alongside my love of painting I enjoy hiking in the countryside, swimming in the ocean, singing, planting and watching my vegetable and flower garden bloom amongst many other things.
