I wanted to gift an artwork to my step-dad of him performing Teenage Dirtbag at my wedding (he put so much effort into making our day so special, and this was a real highlight of the night). I have never done something like this but Rosemary made the whole process so easy, which i am truly grateful for! She kept me updated at every step of the way including pictures and descriptions of what she had done, and a massive bonus that her husband also made the lovely frame. I am so happy with how it turned out and my stepdad absolutley loved the gift! Im so glad that this treasured family memory has been immortalised in such a beautiful painting. Thanks so much Rosemary

Rosemary is amazing! So pleased I found such an obliging and professional artist. I had been searching endlessly to find the right person and someone who was willing and able to deliver a portrait of our family home in a short time of just 3 weeks. Without hesitation and with decisive action Rosemary completed the portrait in record time. I was so thankful and overwhelmed that she honoured my timeline and delivered a beautiful portrait. Rosemary is highly professional and a pleasure to work with, she is incredibly flexible with revisions and maintained excellent communication throughout the project, capturing everything, down to the finest detail of the picket fence. The portrait of our home was a birthday gift to my husband, he was completely surprised and in total awe of the artwork. It’s finally up on the wall and it’s a wonderful addition to our home. Thank you Rosemary for going above and beyond in making a meaningful gift a living memoir designed to be loved for a lifetime. I highly recommend Rosemary a very talented and passionate artist who clearly loves what she does. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for future projects.

I highly recommend Rosemary for anyone seeking exceptional custom artwork. From the outset, she was professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in achieving the best possible outcome. She welcomed every note, reference image, and piece of feedback I provided, and the final work exceeded my expectations in every respect. What truly distinguishes Rosemary is the quality of her artistry. The composition, detail, and execution of the piece demonstrate both technical skill and a deep understanding of her subject. There is a clear sense of intention in every element — from the precision of the brushwork to the way movement, emotion, and character are captured in the final image. The result is not just a painting, but a thoughtful and highly refined piece of work. Her level of service was equally impressive. Rosemary went the extra mile by including a handwritten note for the recipient and arranging delivery on my behalf, which was greatly appreciated. The handcrafted frame, made from locally sourced wood, was well made and complemented the artwork nicely. For anyone looking for outstanding quality, attention to detail, and genuine artistic talent at a fair price, I would not hesitate to recommend Rosemary.

This portrait exceeded all my expectations. Rosemary's ability to capture the resemblance and the connection between my partner and his dog is absolutely impecable. He was beyond happy when he saw it and said it was the best gift ever. The colors and framing is so beautiful, I can't recommend Rosemary and her art enough 💜💜 She communicates the whole process with you and sends regular updates. Absolutely stunning.

From start to finish Rosemary was prompt, professional and flexible. I changed ideas over time and she was very obliging. The end work was just as I had imagined on a very tight time frame. Thanks Rosemary!

For my mums birthday I wanted to organise a painting of her late father, whom she loved very much. When searching for the right artist, I was blown away by the realism of Rosemary’s work and how she could capture the essence of each person she painted. Over the painting period, Rosemary has been easy to communicate with, sending numerous progress pictures, ensuring I was involved in the painting process every step of the way. I was so pleased with the final product as it extended past my expectations, leaving me with an artwork that encapsulated my Grandad. Overall, Rosemary’s hard work has made my Mum’s birthday a special one as she now has something to commemorate her father. Thank you Rosemary, we really appreciate it

I'm so glad I chose Rosemary for my first commissioned artwork. She was incredible to work with, getting my opinion on the project at every step while simultaneously offering guidance and explaining her process. I felt so confident in her that I didn't even ask to see the final painting before she shipped it - I knew I would love the final product and trusted her vision. Speedy communication, delivery 2 weeks ahead of schedule and an amazing final piece. Thank you Rosemary!

Rosemary created the most beautiful piece of art for me to surprise my partner for his first Father’s Day. The whole process was so smooth - communication was simple and uncomplicated, with Rosemary regularly checking in to understand my vision, sharing progress updates, and offering thoughtful suggestions when I needed inspiration. When I first saw the painting, I was so excited and stunned by how perfect it had turned out — hiding it away until the big day definitely took some willpower ! Luckily now it is in the centre of the room for everyone to see. My partner absolutely loves it, and our baby is obsessed — happily sitting and “chat” to himself in the painting. We can greatly recommend Rosemary to anyone wanting a beautiful portrait!

When Rosemary and I began this journey I thought it would be a copy of my much loved painting. However on her suggestion we took a leap of faith and went with restoration. I must say I am very pleased with the result. My lady with the flute has never looked more lovely. All through the process Rosemary sent me regular updates and asked my opinion on anything that she felt I should have some input with. Very polite of her considering my knowledge of painting is lacking somewhat. I can really recommend her work. Many thinks to Rosemary's kind husband who helped out with the framing and delivery. All things being equal a very pleasing experience.

Rosie’s artwork captures the calm beauty of beach scenes and the warmth of loved ones with stunning sensitivity. Her use of soft tones and thoughtful details makes each piece feel personal and peaceful—a true reflection of emotion and place. Her paintings stay with you long after you’ve seen them.

Working with Rosemary on this special piece was an absolute joy from start to finish. From the very beginning, she understood the brief with such sensitivity and clarity — a painting to celebrate my husband’s 40th birthday, combining his two greatest loves: our home and the stars above it. What she created is beyond what I could have imagined. My husband and I call it “Coming Home,” the artwork beautifully captures the essence of our Queenslander under the Milky Way, glowing warmly with the light of home and the infinite night sky above. Rosemary’s talent shines in every detail: the rich textures, vibrant Australian natives in our garden, glowing sky, and even the smallest touches like the Ulysses butterflies and the welcoming path. Her style is full of heart — expressive, detailed, and completely unique. What made the journey even more meaningful was how collaborative and engaging it was. Rosemary brought me along every step of the way, sharing sketches, ideas, and progress updates. It felt like a true joint creative effort, which made the final piece all the more personal and special. Her partner, who handcrafted the beautiful wooden frame, was equally wonderful to deal with. Together, they are a dream team — passionate, professional, and kind. The result is not just a painting, but a cherished memory, full of love and life. Thank you, Rosemary, for bringing “Coming Home” to life. It will be treasured for years to come.

It was absolutely wonderful to work with Rosemary. Not only is she an incredible artist, she is also a truely lovely person. Within a very short time-frame, Rosemary painted ten replica cooking pots for the Queensland Holocaust Museum. The pot that she replicated was the only item that survived the bombing of an apartment in Belgrade during World War Two. Rosemary put so much time, effort, thought and care into this project and the finished pots look phenomenal. Thank you, Rosemary. I am so looking forward to working with you on more creative projects in the future!

Rosemary completed a portrait of our dad just from photos without ever meeting him and it turned out exactly how we wanted. So impressed by her skills. She communicated with us through the whole process and put a lot of effort into capturing his essence. We are very happy we chose to go with her

Rosemary and Karel could not have been more suited to our project! We can’t thank you enough for transforming our little photo into a beautiful painting! The kids can no see who grandpa was, it’s absolutely so much more than a painting!!! From the beginning and throughout communication and dedication to the project was amazing, the painting itself outstanding, Karels nice touch with the framework only complimented the painting, the price was very reasonable and its obvious it's more a passion then just a job which is what I was looking for, if you have a project especially a portrait, I would highly recommend Rosemary. Thank you x 1000!

Thank you Rosemary for such a lovely piece of artwork. Rosemary was so kind to take on this job to create this for our daughter’s kindy as our parting gift, and captured our vision, the colour and feel perfectly. She kept us updated throughout the process, delivered to us far ahead of schedule and was a delight to work with. I can’t wait to work with Rosemary again for another artwork we’ll get to keep! Would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a talented artist.

Rosemary was amazing throughout this whole process, and was able to produce a great portrait of my partner and I that we will treasure.

About
I grew up in Victoria and went to Ballarat Uni for a while, then travelled and painted all over Europe and ended up marrying a perfect Dutch bloke in the Netherlands. Needless to say that the art climate over in the Netherlands is much different from that in Australia, and I joined some interesting artistic movements in my time there. In 1997 I finally managed to convince my husband to move to Australia and we have been in Brisbane and later on the beautiful Sunshine Coast ever since. I paint landscapes, nature and portraits, but open to other subjects if the need arises. I especially love portraits of children, as it practically makes me smile all the while I am working on them. Lastly, my wonderful husband has (finally) turned his hands to framing, so all my paintings are now starting to look even more fabulous, and we will offer the option of a frame with all commissions.

Pick me for these projects! :-

I paint with a lot of emotion, so my favorite projects have a lot of love in them. Weddings, family groups, children and pets. People laughing or being active outdoors, or with interesting indoor lighting. I also love sea and landscapes. trees and flowers.

I'll sit these ones out :-

Anything involving travel. I am practicing for on location wedding work,   but do not want to travel too far to get to a job!
