Her subjects — worn, handled and quietly familiar — range from treasured belongings to overlooked everyday objects, each carrying traces of personal history. Through carefully considered compositions, Ross elevates these seemingly mundane items, allowing memories and emotions to gather around them and transforming still life into something psychologically charged and deeply reflective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer work is grounded in an appreciation of the objects themselves — their form, colour and patina — while also examining what they may represent to both artist and viewer. By arranging subjects with precision and sensitivity, Ross creates paintings that balance intimacy with ambiguity, inviting viewers to project their own narratives onto the scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoss studied for a BA (Hons) in Illustration at Central Saint Martins between 1984 and 1987.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecent exhibitions include \u003cem\u003eNew Work\u003c\/em\u003e at Beaux Arts (2025); \u003cem\u003eSubjects of Reflection\u003c\/em\u003e at Open Eye Gallery (2025); \u003cem\u003eScottish Show 2025\u003c\/em\u003e at Panter and Hall Gallery; \u003cem\u003eFamily Silver\u003c\/em\u003e at Panter and Hall Gallery (2024); and \u003cem\u003eScottish Show 2024\u003c\/em\u003e at Panter and Hall Gallery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2012, Ross was runner-up in the Lynn Painter-Stainers Prize exhibition, and in 2010 received the Art Exposure Gallery Award at the Royal Glasgow Institute Annual Exhibition.
