Cath Rolinson - Fine Art
Past works
As an artist I am constantly learning and change the medium that I use to produce original paintings depending on what suits the project, how much time I have, and what appeals to me at the time.
I have been asked to produce portraits, which I do in acrylic or sketch in gouache, and books for children, which I produced illustrated poems for in acrylic and gouache.
I have painted landscapes of places that I have lived near or travelled to, or as presents for other people of places they have been to.
I have studied Botanical Illustration for a number of years and worked in a range of media, including acrylic, coloured pencil, pen, pencil and watercolour. Most of my botanical illustration work is in watercolour using traditional techniques. The forest in Nottinghamshire provides a rich source of subjects, particularly in autumn, when the fungi emerge from the forest floor.
