Rosemary Clarke Young |
||||||||||||||||||||
Rosemary Clarke Young is a painter who works in oil, encaustic and soft pastel, though she currently favors watercolour wax resist on rice paper as her principal medium. Her preferred subjects are home interiors and landscapes. She is inspired by everyday scenes, capturing light and shadow, and exploiting the qualities of her chosen medium, like the translucency of watercolour and the texture of rice paper. Her vegetation is exuberant and her interiors atmospheric and moody, capturing a moment in time - we expect to see someone come back and sit on the chair as the light filtering through the windows and the long shadows paint a lazy late afternoon scene. Rosemary Clarke Young began studying art in Montreal as a teen. She pursued art later at Barat College, Illinois, in 1971 and the Art Institute of Chicago in 1972. Graduating from Arizona State University with a bachelor’s degree in history in 1974. For the past 16 years, she has exhibited regularly in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Montreal, and Ottawa. Since 2008, she has taught children’s art classes, both privately and in local schools. Her works have been exhibited in Canada and the United States, as well as internationally in Denmark.
