Rosalinda Kightley

Rosalinda Kightley studied graphic design at Kingston College of Art in the early eighties. She then worked as a book designer and illustrator in London. After moving to Surrey, Rosalinda spent the next twenty years illustrating children's picture books and board books which have been published in the UK and abroad.

More recently Rosalinda's work has concentrated on her paintings. She mainly works in acrylics on board, canvas or paper, different surfaces lending themselves to different moods and subjects.

Exploring on foot is her favourite way to find inspiration, grand or overgrown gardens, country lanes and footpaths where things grow undisturbed.

She paints from life, the many photographs she takes whilst out walking, her memory and imagination.
