Rose Tobey
Rose worked in a variety of media, including painting, mixed media assemblage, printmaking, and sculpture.
As president of the Texas Visual Arts Association, Rose lived, worked, and exhibited in Dallas and the surrounding Texas region.
Using every medium, she brought together unrelated bits and assembled them into memorable works of art.
She explained:
Memories and personal experiences adds a creative dimension to my work, using at times found objects or text and shapes which often depart from realism. That is the magic in art.
Never one to cut off her ear for her art, Rose’s work reflected her own joie de vivre. Her pieces were notable for color, whimsy, and a light touch, often demonstrating a reverence for her family.
