Looking at Rose Wylie’s 21/2 D paintings is taking a journey back through time to those idealised drawings of the homes and gardens of our childhood where we paid graphic homage to the people and places that nurtured us. Wylie, however pays homage to much more than that it her zany, eclectic paintings, the references range far and wide, from primitive painting through Ancient Egyptian and Roman painting to the medieval, and on to contemporary animation, also, autobiographically, they scan experiences from earliest childhood, through to the mini inspirations sparked by details of contemporary consumer product packaging
