ROSSINA BOYER | STUDIO 303 | MATICES DE COLORES ARTS

PAINTING

Meet Rossina and her world of colors! Her passion for painting started when she was just 11 years old and fell in love with art class in school.

She was born in Peru, and at the age of 16 she immigrated to the United States. She called Houston home until 5 years ago when she moved to the Rocket City! She is married and has a daughter, Matisse, who she shares the joy of painting with.

In 2020, she published her first children’s book titled “Please, I Want to see papa again," or “Por favor, quiero ver a papa otra vez." This bilingual book is a true work of love that shares her family's immigration story.

"Many ask what inspires me and to be honest, inspiration usually finds me without me looking for it. It is everywhere and surrounds me. It is the people, their stories, distant places, a landscape, a flower, the deep sea, a country, its culture, moments of happiness and so on. All of these serves as inspiration to create paintings that reflect who I am and what I am trying to tell. Every painting has its own story.

When I blend colors, I feel that I am breathing. I usually try not think or analyze so much what I am doing. I let myself go. Sometimes, I get lost half way but the canvas and I find our way in the end. The results can be amazing. My paintings revives homes and brings joy to families and that for me is enough."
