Pauline Roche was born in London but grew up in
Australia from the age of seven. In 1995 she
moved to the United States. She lived for a
number of years in Boston, and has now settled in
Tucson, Arizona, with her husband and two
children. Paulines work has won a number of
awards in juried exhibitions, including the Gold
Medal of Honor at the Audubon Artists Annual
exhibition, New York and others in exhibitions at
the Catherine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club, the
Salmagundi Club and the American Artists
Professional League, New York.  Her work was
selected as a Top 100 Finalist in the Art Renewal
Center's International ARC Salon (2007) and
recently she was a semifinalist in the
International 2008/2009 ARC Salon.   She is
listed in Whos Who in America and Whos Who of
American Women. A feature article on Pauline's
work and technique, 'Contemplating the Past,
Painting the Present' appeared in American Artist
magazine (May 2007).

Pauline's figurative pieces usually portray
people in distinctive settings. She loves to
capture the unique gestures of people in quiet
contemplation and reveal a connection between the
people and their surroundings. In particular, she
looks for connections between her figures and
art. Museum settings with paintings and
sculpture, historical buildings with grand
architecture, people involved in dance and
musical performance are consistent themes in her
figurative work. In addition to her figurative
work, Pauline paints still life, and plein air
landscapes. She believes in continually painting
a variety of subject matter, enjoying the varied
challenges and stimulation that different
subjects offer. Pauline's early art training was
in the studios of practicing artists in
Australia, where she received extensive training
in traditional painting. Her subsequent art
education has included studies at the School of
the Museum of Fine Art, Boston and The Florence
Academy of Art, Italy.

Pauline has exhibited her work annually in Boston
since 1998 and has also continued to exhibit in
Australia where she was the recipient of a
coveted prize for oil painting in the prestigious
national juried exhibition, The A.M.E. Bale Art
Awards, known as Australia's premier awards for
traditional realism and figurative art. During
her time in Tucson AZ, she was artist in
residence at Ventana Medical Systems Inc., where
she developed a number of paintings of scientists
at work and created a portrait of the founder of
the company, which now hangs permanently in the
company headquarters. Pauline is a member of Oil
Painters of America, the Portrait Society of
America and the Tucson Plein Air Painters
Society. She is also a member of the Australian
Guild of Realist Artists and is a signatory
member of the Victorian Artists Society. Her work
is included in the corporate collection of the
Melbourne Museum, Australia, the corporate
collection of Ventana Medical Systems Inc.,
Tucson and in many other collections in USA,
Australia, and Europe.
