Oil Figurative Paintings of Nude Females by Serena Rose United States

Serena Rose was born in Lake
Wales, Florida, on December 9, 1953.  At an early age, she explored the
wooded areas around the family home, developed an imagination filled with
romantic and magical ideas, and discovered  her artistic talents.  She
won her first award as an artist at age nine.  Ten years later she met a
gifted artist who rekindled her interest in painting.  Later, in Key West,
Florida, Serena met Paul Stevens, a figure painter and long-time gallery owner
who recognized her talent, and she became a full-time apprentice in his gallery
studio.  For three years, Serena's studies with Mr. Stevens were serious
and intensive, and concentrated on composition, design, figure drawing, color
principles, and painting techniques.  Other than her instruction and
lessons with Mr. Stevens, Serena has developed her artistic skills without formal training.


In 1991, Serena opened Serena Rose Gallery and Studio at the World's Fair Park
in Knoxville, Tennessee.  She exhibited and sold her art at the gallery and taught classes
in drawing.  Her studio became a classroom for the Knoxville Museum of Art, the
University of Tennessee, The Summer Arts & Sciences Academy, Noah's Ark
after-school program, and private tutoring.  Because of the popularity of her
classes in drawing realism, teaching became a full-time preoccupation for five
years which involved over 750 students.

In 1996, she
quit teaching and closed her gallery so that she could focus on her art and her
garden, as seen in the paintings in this exhibit.  Her garden has become an integral part of her
art and an exotic setting
for her models.  Now Serena is focused on a continuing series of paintings that best
reflect her love of life and nature, and the child that still lives within her. 
Through her paintings, her early childhood dreams are becoming her own reality.

Serena's art has been featured in many
magazines.  She sells her originals and publishes her art through her studio as
limited edition giclees, and she sells her art on an international basis through her
website and magazine exposure.
