Vikki Fuller - Rosie

Vikki Fuller

Rosie

Painting / Oil

Original oil painting on canvas - Rosie- did not enjoy the pack mentality, she was not a follower, and sometimes she walked alone, and sometimes far from the herd and often getting herself into trouble, but always finding her way back to the sheepfold just the same. She wasn’t afraid to be herself!

Nature holds a special place in my heart, as do animals. They are constant sources of inspiration for my work. Through painting, I seek to express aspects of the emotional connections we have to nature and animals. Living on an island off the coast of Vancouver, I feel very connected to the land and sea around me. The local seascapes inspire me in many ways. For me they capture a time and place that is both personal and familiar. Often, they will suggest a narrative, or story if you will. In my process, I usually sketch in charcoal first, to roughly work out an idea for a painting, working directly onto the canvas, occasionally referring to my photos. While painting, I will often have a fleeting thought, from a walk or a dream, that will bring me further insight for the painting. Painting allows me time each day to pause and reflect on what is most meaningful to me. I like to think that by painting the beauty of what I feel for so deeply, I can create moods for others to reflect on and enjoy. This is the true spirit of my work.
