C.V.

Rosa Maria Booth (R. M. Parejo) known in the Art World as "Rosmar" was born in Olot, a picturesque Catalan Town on the river Fluvia close to the Pyrenees in Northern Spain; she came from a family of artistic background. A former fashion designer and later a language tutor, she studied Art privately and at various colleges.

 

At home as a young girl Rosmar was privileged to meet the great Catalan Artist Salvador Dali on several occasions. She was so fascinated by his extraordinary personality and the surrealist paintings he produced that she decided then that she wanted to became an artist.So she became a disciple of J. Agusti and E. Parejo from” l’escola paisagistica Olotina". She was involved in the old group “el Crater d’art” and became a member of ANSIBA.

 

She moved to Paris in 1972 and, after a short spell at the Ecole d’art Martenot , she become a pupil of Madeleine Scali. As a   student Rosmar quite often sold her work  in Montmartre to be able to purchase art material. She found the artistic atmosphere of the city extraordinary.

 

In 1975 Rosmar finally arrived in London  and, after a  short spell at the Heartherley  school of  Art and The City Lit, she became a pupil of K. Walch, and  later, in Essex,  of M. Martin TTC.


Artist's Statement

For me painting is a never ending activity and the result of hard and constant work. Mixed together with a great delight, and a passion for detail, I like to create work from reality, the imagination, or just express my inner feelings.  To paint and create a work of art gives me great pleasure and I just hope that you’ll have as much enjoyment viewing it.
