Oxmarket are delighted to welcome back artist Nicola Rose to the John Rank gallery for a 2 week exhibition. Nicola’s exhibition Elemental shows her recent work which is inspired by Colonsay and Jura in the Hebrides and by Shetland in the far north. There are also paintings inspired by Dartmoor, where, when the mists come down, Nicola feels cocooned and removed from the world.

Nicola travels to places of physical and inspirational isolation; islands of spiritual significance; liminal locations which transcend our earthbound boundaries. In her words Nicola says ‘My approach is uncompromising. I paint what I see and I paint how I feel. I paint directly from the wild which is often challenging but always life affirming and incredibly beautiful in all it’s moods.
