Ruth Waldron Artist and designer Decorating With Art 0.0s
My inspiration: I am an Irish artist, based in my studio in the south of France. My work reflects my love for my home and the beautiful landscape of the Tarn valley. Creating a sense of “home and belonging” is central to my work, which is symbolized by the blue and white china in my paintings. My intention is to share a feeling of nostalgia and quiet wonder with the viewer. I want my art to connect on a subconscious level with a lost memory or feeling of deja vu - much like a scent or music can transport us to magical moments in the past.
About Me.... I have been a creator all my life. As a child I was constantly drawing and painting and that passion followed me through school, and into my career. I was an interior designer for many years and a florist for a time. Making things and re-imagining my surroundings is what makes me tick. My home and the world around me inspire me everyday. The motifs in my work like the blue and white pottery symbolise my home; while the flowers and other floral elements in my work, connect me with a sense of well being and comfort I absorb from nature. I have been fortunate to have lived in China, Singapore and now in France and I can see the influence of all these cultures in my work alongside my Irish heritage. My sense of colour and design was developed in my career as an interior designer and florist, my techniques owes a lot to my time in China where I learned to paint in ink, and my subject matter comes from my love of the landscape in Ireland and France.
