Description
About the Book
Award-winning artist Rosie Sanders explores the ever-popular rose, presenting more than 50 of her beautiful paintings for the first time. For every painting, Sanders wrote a personal letter to the final recipient or buyer. Many of these notes appear, revealing the creative and emotional process involved in painting that work. Sanders also provides insight into the cultural importance of roses in art, and includes all her sketches and drawings.Book Synopsis
Award-winning and hugely popular artist Rosie Sanders showcases the beauty of the rose in her follow up to Rosie Sanders Flowers. Over 80 stunning paintings and sketches are shown for the first time. The artist writes a personal letter on each of her rose paintings (to be given unopened to the final recipient or buyer of the painting). Many of these personal letters sit alongside the paintings, as they explain the creative and emotional process she went through to create it. The book is a revealing insight into the artist's muse and the author's sketches and drawings are also included to show the full artistic process. The book is introduced by an extended essay on the resonance of the rose - all across the world - in our art, literature, poetry, folklore and gardens. The rose emblem is timeless and this book not only celebrates its beauty in art but tells the story of the rose as one of nature's most powerful motifs.Review Quotes
