Ros Koch is a British-born, South-African based artist who works from her home studio where she translates her immediate drawn response to her local environment into a more considered reflection of place. She captures both energy and light in her drawings and paintings not only to pay homage to the life around her but to gift those viewing her art the chance to feel the same emotions she feels when composing the art. She endeavours to keep a freshness and freedom in her paintings – often using large canvases and big, bold brushstrokes – but also enjoys working on smaller-scale projects that demand attention to detail. Her visual language, depicted through brushstrokes and drawn line, is constantly evolving – sometimes using strong colours, and at others soft muted tones – reflecting the changing seasons of her life.
