Roseanne Jones

Roseanne Jones is known for her striking high contrast black and white photographs of her home city Christchurch, New Zealand. Her images have a strong sense of line and form using shadows and reflections where possible. Roseanne uses interesting angles and viewpoints to get a unique perspective on life’s different subjects.

Roseanne Jones has been exploring Encaustic Photography for the past two years. Encaustic gives her photography an added element of depth and texture. She uses encaustic medium, cold wax and oil paint. Roseanne creates detail by engraving into the wax using sculptor’s tools; this inscribed detail enables the oil paint to set into the wax and adds contrast to the work.
