About Artist
Roseanne Jones
Hi and welcome to my website!
This site promotes a selection of my Print on Demand Products. The
products feature graphics that I have created. The products are
manufactured through one of four Print on Demand companies;
CafePress, Zazzle, Artamatik & DeckPeck. I just do the graphic art,
I do not manufacture the products. All pictures on this site are
linked to the product at the online store where it can be
purchased. Each different company has different manufacturing and
shipping times plus different payment options.
If you are interested in a custom
designed product, feel free to get in contact and I will let you
know if I can help you out.
A bit about me;
I was born in Christchurch, South
Island, New Zealand, 1978. I have lived here all my life.
I have been working fulltime as a
self-representing visual artist for the past 13 years, I have no
formal tertiary qualifications and have predominantly taught myself
through experimenting. My interests and inspiration comes from
alternative youth subcultures, fashion & decorative art.
My Art
History
- Stages of
my work over the last 12 years
1996 -
1998
Paper Collage
I started my art
career creating paper collage, cut-out works. My method was
drawing the image, painting on the reverse side then cutting
out once dry and gluing selected un shaded pieces on to a
black piece of paper. I created stylized landscapes,
wildlife designs, geometrical abstract and koru designs. I
used fluro and vibrant acrylic paint & glue sticks to glue
the work together.
1999 -
2000
Canvas Collage
Looking for a change
from paper, I moved on to canvas. I started with the same
technique then I started layering the canvas and building up
more texture. I liked to use gold and other metallic colors
in these works. I sometimes added nylon thread and pieces of
fabric.
2001 -
2007
Fabric Collage
After working
sometimes with fabric on the canvas collages, I started
taking a keen interest in fabric. My first fabric collage
was inspired by Art Deco, it was silver, black & white
diamond checkers. Not to long after creating my first fabric
work I took an interest in alternative sub cultures and
their fashion styles such as Gothic, Lolita, Punk and the
Biker Scene. I decided I would sacrifice my old leather
biker jacket to make an abstract collage, it turned out to
be the start and inspiration of works to come. I then
created a few Gothic styled collages using a layered effect
and sometimes painting over top with black acrylic paint.
Moving onto Gothic Lolita I added lace and frills. Having
explored the Gothic theme I decided to create some Punk Rock
Abstract works, these works were great to work on, I added
plaid, studs, digital print transfers, safety pins, zips and
leather.
Through out my fabric collage
years I had been designing alternative digital art on my
computer. Skulls have always been a big part of my work from
Gothic morbid Skulls to Punk Skulls with Mohawks and then to
cartoon & princess Emo Skulls. This move to digital Emo
Scene Art inspired me to create some Emo Fabric Collages, I
used a mix of prints and fabric with these works, in the end
I preferred to create my Emo Scene art on the computer,
designing T-Shirt graphics, Art Prints & other fashion
accessories through print on demand technology.

Black &
White Landscape Photography
My Photography features Trees, Pathways,
Empty Park Benches and Riverbank scenes. Working with Black
& White lets me focus on composing my shot and featuring
light details with shadows and reflections. My work
sometimes reflects feelings of solitude, loneliness &
despair from the size & magnitude of the large trees that
surround us. Signifying we are only small in comparison and
it is up to each and every one of us to decide carefully on
which path to take in life. My current photographs are taken
in
Christchurch,
New Zealand.
