Wit, Whimsy and Fanciful things, by Rosemarie Dunn

Art Exhibit Reception

Opening reception for "Wit, Whimsy, and Fanciful Things" - watercolors, colored pencil, and pen art by Rosemarie Dunn. Exhibit runs from April 10–June 5.

Artist's Statement
One of the best compliments I have ever received was that “Every picture made them smile”. That describes my mission perfectly. If I can shine my light and put a smile on someone’s face, then I can be an influence for good in some small way.

Artist's Bio
I am a self taught artist and stay at home mom living in Utah. I grew up with a love of art inspired by my father who worked doing layouts for Rolling Stone magazine in its early stages in San Francisco. I love animation and fantasy especially when it blurs the lines between real and imaginary. When I was young I had dreams of working for Disney, but life had different plans. So four kids and two children's books later, I am doing art out of my home, usually in the evenings after my kids go to bed.

I typically work with a mixed media of ink, colored pencil and watercolor. I love to inspire people to daydream whether it's going for a Sunday stroll riding your cuttlefish, paddling your favorite sea horse down the river, or a world where robots eat bubblegum and ice cream. My mission with my art is to delight and inspire people to imagine, and I want each of my pieces to tell a story to the viewer. I hope the viewer takes the story further with the picture and decides what happens next.
