About the Artist

„My series of pain�ngs in monumental format
is a specialty of pain�ng I grew to love as a re-
sult of my study in Germany. Having been clas-
sically trained, I was equipped to move into a
freer sort of pain�ng that enabled spontaneity
in the form and anatomy of the figures, vegeta-
�on, and the rich fabrics and pa�erns, all of
which evolve as I work. I emphasize movement
and intense color while maintaining the plan-
ned order necessary to create complicated
composi�ons. I especially enjoy pain�ng narra-
�ves that weave a harmony between the Old
and New Testament Scriptures.

My art studies were in three schools that em-
braced three totally different philosophies of
working. My earliest study was at the American
Academy of Art in Chicago, and the Art Ins�tute Rosemarie Adcock - USA
of Chicago. At the first school I learned to paint,
at the second I learned to think more deeply
about my pain�ng as it related to the history of
art in the centuries before me. At my third
school, the State Academy of Fine Art in Karls-
ruhe, Germany, I combined my classical influ-
ence with the freedom of my spontaneous
composi�ons and figures. Blending these flowi-
ng composi�ons with refined detail has beco-
me nothing short of exhilara�ng for me as an See www.RosemarieAdcock.com
