Rebecca Rose works outside
of Pittsburgh, PA, and is originally from Maryland. She has been painting
for over 10 years and has created artworks that can be seen as far west as
Alaska and as far east as London.
Rose enjoys anything and everything related to paint! From creating
hand-painted designs from perhaps the world's oldest art form - body painting;
where she brushes canvases of flesh with bright, bold
and brilliant colors, transforming her models into works of art for
festivals, fashion shows, art openings, private events, calendar shoots, and
more, to painting elegant faux finish designs inside of homes and
businesses.
Rebecca Rose's
Artist Statement
ART ... is more than a 16" x 20" canvas,
trapped, confined and imprisoned under glass - then hung - lifeless on a
sterile wall.
Art is more than pretty pictures that die inside of magazines.
Art is RISK
- to let go and see the unseen. Art is
HISTORY.
Art is SPIRITUALITY
- to reprogram your mind from finding beauty in fields of flowers and Cosmo
magazine to finding beauty in the depths of your own subconscious.
Art is INSIGHT.
Art is EXPOSURE
- to expose truth, to expose lies.
Art is CREATION.
Art is EMPOWERMENT.
Art SCREAMS
silently - from a child
who cannot formulate feelings but draws, to a teenager's graffiti, to an
adult who speaks not of love nor hate, but sculpts with a passion.
Art is CULTURE.
Art is finding beauty in the unexpected.
Art brings
COMMUNITY. Art is
FREEDOM
... is
LIFE!
On a personal note:
'I love life, and everyone and everything in it! I am inspired everyday, and I fall in love everyday. I fall in love with people, with ideas and colors. I plan to live to be a 110 years-old and paint 'til that day!' - Rebecca Rose
