Mixed Water Media

 

In 1987, Rosalie Vass introduced her signature style that continues to fascinate and please audiences. She uses mixed water media  (watercolor and acrylic) in a layering technique on heavy  watercolor paper.  After the paint has dried, she adds scribbled  lines from prisma color pencils to heighten the texture and the direction of  movement.  Her choice of subject matter is infinite; ranging from cows to angels and fish to goats and anything else that comes to mind.    

 

 

Rosalie paints in all sizes and shapes.  The range is from tiny (5” x 7”)  to very large    (3’x 4’).   Commission requests are welcome.

New Paintings: Oil on Canvas

 

Never content to work in one media, Rosalie Vass has again resumed painting in oil on canvas.  She embraces the new style canvas that is stretched on a 1&1/2” deep wooden frame.  The staples are hidden in the back leaving the edge unblemished.  This presents another opportunity to the artist.  Vass paints the edges with designs influenced by icons, illuminated manuscripts, and gilded frames.  This finishes the painting with a “self-frame” that adds a contemporary look to the work.
