About Lorraine Roberts Fine Art
Lorraine Roberts – Artist Statement
For me, art is a way of connecting with and celebrating the natural world. My creative journey has always been guided by rhythm, observation and a deep appreciation for beauty—from my classical training as a flutist to my work as a landscape designer and author of two published gardening books. These experiences have taught me to listen, notice, and find meaning in the subtle rhythms of nature.
Working primarily in soft pastel, I create landscape and nature-inspired works that capture more than a place—they seek to convey its mood, energy and sense of light. My paintings celebrate the fleeting moments that make a landscape memorable: the changing seasons, the movement of light, and the interplay of colour, form and atmosphere.
I translate these observations into art through expressive colour, layered applications of pastel pigment and a sensitive approach to light. Like music, my work is composed through rhythm, balance, pause and movement. Across my many creative disciplines, I bring the same curiosity and attentiveness to each new work—living the rhythm in art.
