Rosemary Lindsay is an award-winning botanical artist whose London garden is visited by people from all over the world. She trained first in architecture and worked in several architectural practices before her fascination with the structure of plants led to freelance plant illustration. She is a member of the Society of Botanical Artists (SBA) and, as a Fellow of the Florilegium Society of the Chelsea Physic Garden in London, she regularly contributes paintings to the CPG archive. Rosemary Lindsay's paintings have been included in a British Council travelling exhibition on British Illustrators, annual exhibitions of the SBA in London and Florum in Kent, and a number of single artist shows. She has taken part several times at Art in Action, Waterperry, Oxfordshire, as an invited illustrator. Numerous public and private commissions include drawings for the Royal Horticultural Society's Plant Registers and The Plantsman. As a writer she is a regular contributor to the quarterly journal Hortus and illustrates her articles with black and white line drawings (click on to Hortus drawing below). Under the name ARIA CARDS, Rosemary Lindsay publishes many of her watercolour paintings as postcards and greetings cards, which are sold both privately and in botanic gardens, galleries, bookshops and many outlets associated with gardens. The originals are usually for sale privately and at exhibitions.
