Rosie Burns is a painter and printmaker, she is one half of Rosie and Red Art and Leather, working from studios in Bideford, North Devon. Her work is a vibrant exploration of light, life, and the interplay between humanity and the environment. More formal oil paintings celebrate the natural world, and generate urban narratives, whilst experimental printmaking processes challenge depictions of gender, environmental concerns and push the boundaries between print and paint. Rosie initially trained as an Archaeological site and finds illustrator, she then went on to train in Devon to teach art and design in schools, she worked in state education for over 20 years. Rosie has exhibited locally, nationally and internationally for over 3 decades, participated in Art for Social Justice exhibitions in Miami, Berlin and the 2024 Venice Biennial.

Artizan Collective at Delamore Arts 2026
Artizan Collective is proud to return to Delamore Arts for our third consecutive year in 2026. Since our partnership began in 2024, our presence within the historic grounds of Delamore has grown from a single showcase into a vibrant, multi-venue Stableyard Arts Quarter—a dedicated hub for contemporary British craft, fine art, and creative engagement. Based in the heart of the English Riviera, Artizan Collective is a social enterprise dedicated to championing the South West’s creative industries. Since 2014, we have worked from our home in Torbay—a UNESCO Global Geopark—to support hundreds of artists annually, managing cultural venues and providing essential platforms for both emerging and established talent. Our ongoing collaboration with Delamore Arts allows us to extend this mission, bringing the very best of regional and national creativity to one of the most prestigious events on the South West arts calendar. This year, Artizan Collective is delivering its most ambitious programme to date, transforming the Delamore Stable Courtyard into a destination for discovery: •Contemporary British Printmakers: Our flagship exhibition returns for its third year in the Carriage Room Gallery, celebrating the technical mastery and narrative power of original handmade prints. •The Kiln Room: Following its standout success, this dedicated space returns to showcase the "alchemy" of ceramics, from functional studio pottery to avant-garde sculptural clay. •The Old Workshop (New for 2026): Transitioning from a trial of "have-a-go" sessions into a permanent fixture, this dedicated space hosts a full month of curated exhibitions, workshops and demonstrations. •The Courtyard Shop (New for 2026): A brand-new retail experience for Delamore, showcasing "stockable" high-quality art products. From original textiles to handmade stationery, leather goods and more, it is the perfect place to find a unique, artisan-made treasure. •The Maker Takeovers: Located in "The Stalls," these rotating pop-up art spaces offer an intimate, ever-changing opportunity to meet the region’s finest artisans, watch live demonstrations, and buy direct from the creators. "Delamore Arts has become a cornerstone of our annual activity. In our third year, we are thrilled to be deepening our contribution, showcasing the incredible vibrancy of the UK’s creative community. Our commitment remains rooted in the belief that art should be engaging and accessible, and we are honoured to provide a bridge between the extraordinary artists we represent and the discerning visitors of Delamore." Through this curated showcase, we hope to not only add value to the visitor experience but also to shine a light on the incredible talent shaping the future of British art and craft. We invite you to explore, discover, and take home a piece of original creativity this May.

🖌️ Monoprint and Gold These prints are made by cutting and marking mount board – a waste product from picture framing, I draw out the image from life – so the prints have an immediate and direct feel, rather than working from drawings. The plate is cut and marked then sealed – inked with a roller, using a relief process on damp paper to get a solid image from a thin profile plate. The prints are cardboard cut mono-prints, an edition of 8 is the usual maximum from one plate, I often edition only 5 with 1 proof – before its too flattened and able to produce a clean image. I like the papery textures, an unpredictable torn surface un-obtainable in other relief media. The prints take a few days to dry, then a thin glaze of gold and sometimes silver oil paint added for a bit of feminine sparkle and lustre. It takes over a week to make an edition, each print I make is signed, numbered titled and embossed. I work with Cranfeild safe wash inks, 100% recycled hand made cotton rag Khadi papers and thinned gold and silver oil paint for all my Siren - or female prints.
