Full Circle Arts will be featuring the works of Alexander County artist Rosanne Hull Pritchett from June 1 to July 30 at the Gallery located in downtown Hickory NC at 219 First Avenue Northwest, Suite 101 in the Glassworks Building.

Rosanne has a BFA in Art and Interior Design from Western Carolina University and her teaching certificate from Lenoir Rhyne College. She has taught art at East Burke High School for 14 years. Her art reflects many different styles, mediums and interests. If you try to pin her down with a description, the only word that comes to mind is eclectic. Equally comfortable with oils, acrylics, watercolor, or pastels, her styles vary from realistic, to impressionistic, expressionistic or abstract. She paints still life, landscape, portraits and human figure with a vibrancy that reflects her fascination with color. “Learning about color takes a lifetime!” she commented. Even though she is a Hickory native with an artistic linage, she loves to travel. Beach scenes derive from her love of the ocean and time spent in Carolina Beach, NC where she was a life guard and learned to surf, and Key Largo, Fl where she enjoyed sailing and scuba diving. Mountain and river scenes spring from childhood summers spent in Edgemont, NC and current summers in Hot Springs, NC where she works as a white water raft guide. Sometimes her work mirrors a southwestern feel. “The indescribable, almost unearthly glowing light, that I saw on my visits to Santa Fe and Georgia O’Keefe’s Ghost Ranch in New Mexico have had a huge impact on my art.” In addition, she also enjoys still life and human form which are similar in many ways despite their contrasts. “After all, figure painting is nothing more that a still life composed of the human figure in a setting rather than fruit or flowers in a bowl.” The most realistic of her art is portraiture. She is available for commission work in any of her art styles or subjects and may be contacted at rosanepritchett@hotmail. com.
