Biography
Naomi Alexander ROI is a painter whose favoured subjects include domestic interiors and
landscapes. She travels widely and her works are inspired by subjects she has seen, based
on Sketches and Watercolours produced “en plein air”. Her major projects include a series of
paintings of the attics of Chatsworth and works made in Lithuania. Authored books include
‘Once Upon A Time In Lithuania’ (2006) and ‘Domesticity’ (2015) and a new graphic novel is
in preparation, featuring a series of iPad drawings on the subject of Naomi’s experience of
domestic abuse. She is regularly commissioned to paint Portraits.
