Since starting as a full time artist in 1983, Rosemary has established a reputation for paintings that reflect her love of the Peak District landscape. Her detailed watercolour paintings include views of typical villages, towns and scenery of both the Dark Peak and White Peak. She particularly enjoys painting scenes that characterise the styles and traditions of the area, especially those buildings that reflect the older industrial landscape.

Her work has won recognition at the Derbyshire Open Exhibition, including the Francis Lowe Trophy in 1991 and the Watercolour Prize in 1994. Rosemary's paintings are found in many collections, both public and private. Many have gone abroad to countries as diverse as New Zealand, Australia, Denmark and Canada. Her work has also been reproduced as calendars, greetings cards and illustrations.

Rosemary has lived in Disley since 1979, with her two sons and a very old Labrador dog, all of who accompany her on tours of the Peak District in search of new material for paintings.
