Rosemary was born in New York City where she was the second oldest of nine siblings. She has always had an interest in art at a young age. Later she moved to California in the 1960′s where she started to paint more seriously. She was inspired by the beauty of the light and the many wonderful vistas of the California landscape and started painting with oils and then in watercolor. She uses bold and bright colors in her floral watercolors and more soft and muted colors in her landscapes.

Rosemary loves theatre and music. She also plays classical guitar.
