Rose Watts Bio

FNQ based visual artist, Rose Watts’ childhood passion for artmaking was re-ignited while working and living in the USA as a nurse.
She received her art education in NYC, and worked as an artist for several years there before returning to Australia in 2006.
Since 2020, Rose has focused primarily on her artmaking as well as intermittently teaching drawing. Her inspiration stems from nature, people and her innate compulsion to create.
