SHARON ROBERTSON

ARTIST STATEMENT
I have been working at Out of the Blue in for a year now, the fantastic skylines over the Forth have inspired me to re start exploring my response to the environment of memories. I have used a lot of old photos and objects from a well-known context.

Trying to recapture moments of light and emotion, exploring the memory evoked from a place long forgotten. It's these moods that I piece together and translate onto a woodland scene or some architectural detail. In my art I try to capture our transience throughnature.

I work in bursts and starts but I am continually sorting, framing, organising colours and shapes as I go about my day. 

My still life paintings consist of a familiar collection of china that shows or reminds me of something different every time I use them.

I studied at both Duncan of Jordanstone and Winchester College of Art. I have more recently got into video production and editing and have completed an HND in TV and Operation Skills.
