The blackShed gallery is proud to announce our first exhibition by Rosie Williams

Rosie Williams found her way to making art in 2022, when she moved to East Sussex after a career as a teacher and a psychotherapist in East London.  She initially played with colours and mark-making as a form of therapeutic self-expression. It became engrossing, compelling. She fell in love with watercolours.

Until this point she had “used” art in the classroom and in the therapy room.  Two years ago, she co-founded an art studio in a room above the Salehurst Halt, where a group meets each week to paint and create. She learns from these friends, from workshops and online tutorials. 

Rosie is particularly interested in the interface between psychology and abstract art. She brings attention and curiosity to the work table when she releases ink or watercolour onto paper. The lines and flow hold the tensions she recognises between vulnerability and control, energy and stillness, the deeply personal and the universal.
