Working together with big brands

After graduating, she worked for two creative agencies and then started for herself. She felt she needed a different way to express her creativity. Since then, she alternates between commercial projects and more artistic ones, together with self-initiated work.

Big brands have come along her way. Think of Apple, Nike, H&M and many others. These brands seem to be mesmerized by the bold images Pelkington creates. You may recognize Pilkington’s work from Apple commercials. iPhones always display a floating piece of Rose’s art on their screens.

Despite these big assignments, Rose Pilkington likes to create self-initiated work as well. She enjoys playing with colors and textures freely, without the limitations of commercial brands.

Inspired by nature

Currently, nature heavily inspires contemporary artist Rose Pilkington. Think of coral structure and colors, insects and frogs. Furthermore, she likes to go for unexpected combinations of colors. Pilkington plays with blends that seem to clash in first sense, but somehow go very well together. That’s what she likes about working digitally: the possibilities are endless and sometimes she accidentally creates something totally new.
