Rosy was born in Sydney
and semi-retired to the Hinterland of Byron Bay in 2000, where her love
of botany and gardening flourished.
Until 2007 she had not
picked up a paint brush since leaving school and she is basically
self-taught.
Her love of detailed
botanical painting was ignited after seeing an artist's watercolour
collection of Tasmanian flora, whilst holidaying in Hobart in 2007.
She has since completed a
Botanical Art External Course with international tutor and artist Leonie
Norton, in 2008.
She joined the Botanical
Art Society of Australia in 2008 and has been exhibiting annually since
then.
