Biography
Rose-Marie Goodwin (née Svenhard Johnsen), creative and artistic to her core, began sketching family members at the kitchen table since as a child arriving from Sweden to Canada's West Coast. She has been inspired by Caravaggio, Degas, O'Keeffe, Hopper and Gavazza.
Since the 1980's Rose-Marie expresses her creativity in oil and acrylic painting—having experienced water colours, pastels, metal casting, lost-wax jewellery casting and wood sculpting. Her own style has been accomplished through the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design and Capilano University in Vancouver; the Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico; and in courses and workshops with strong accomplished artists. Rose-Marie is now dedicated to her art more than ever.
"I have always been attracted to the 'corners of our world', vignettes of everyday life with dramatic light, colour and shadow".
An accomplished colourist, in her studio she enjoys focusing upon acrylic images of the West Coast, the Rockies, Mexico and beyond.
Juries have selected her works for the Sidney Fine Arts Show; Kelowna's Art Vision 2009; a solo show at the Silk Purse Art Gallery; a Special Jury Selection Group Show at the Ferry Building Art Gallery; and several Group Shows at the Federation of Canadian Artists Gallery (FCA). Her works have been purchased by private collectors in Canada, Washington, California, South Carolina and Sweden.
