Rosie Grundell, also known as, The Wood Wife, is a mixed-media artist based in Scarsdale. She combines natural fibres, dried flora, recycled wood, and found objects with paper clay, needle felting, beads, and paint decoration to create weird and wonderful characters: elves, witches, fairies, sprites, and woodland creatures. Rosie is equally known for creating fantastical dragons and her diverse range of paper clay mushrooms.

Kate has been a full-time artist for 7 years. She works from her home studio in Haddon, creating calm, feminine, and flowing landscapes, seascapes, botanicals, and abstract paintings. Her paintings are in private collections in Singapore, America, the UK, Germany, and across Australia. She has a painting in the Federation University collection and was a finalist in the 2023 Bluethumb Art Prize.
