Artist renowned for her 'wonky' pictures of Droitwich has exhibition at town's Park’s Café

A DROITWICH artist who is renowned for her ‘wonky’ paintings, has an exhibition of her work on the walls of a local café.

Rosie Philpott’s collection, of both originals and prints, is on display at the Park’s Café in Droitwich throughout February.

Her paintings of local views, such as ‘Wonky Droitwich’ have proven extremely popular with their local characters and quirky style.

Rosie said: “I enjoy working in watercolour and fine line pen, exaggerating the scenes I see around me.




“It is rare that I get a chance to show my originals as they are usually already spoken for so it’s exciting that I get to show to a wider public.”

The exhibition is part of a scheme devised by the Droitwich Arts Network (DAN), where members can display their work for free at local venues.


A different artist is given a chance to display their work each month.

Rosie, who is also secretary of DAN, said: “It is great that, as an artist, I have these opportunities to display my work.

“Paul – the owner of Park’s Café – has been extremely supportive of the network and encourages all our artists.

“As such, this venue is keenly sought after by our members and there is usually a year-long waiting list.”

The exhibition also provides the chance to see Rosie’s latest painting ‘Bridge 31’, a local canal scene which Rosie hopes will prove popular.

Paul Richardson added: “It is always a joy to have Rosie’s work on the walls.”

Residents popping in for drinks or food will be able to see the collection.
