Rosemarie Valsoaney is a mixed-media artist working in dreamy abstract realism, painting quiet stories that live between humans, animals, and the natural world. Her work is rooted in symbolism and meaning, created to honor hope, gentleness, and the emotional strength present in every living thing.

She started her career as a children’s illustrator and book designer, learning how to communicate feeling and meaning through expressive imagery rather than words. As her practice evolved, she spent years recreating works by the great masters, studying how light, composition, and emotion shape not just an image, but the way a painting makes us feel. This path eventually led her to the Mastery Program at the Milan Art Institute, where she refined her voice and deepened her approach to mixed-media storytelling.

Her process blends realism with abstraction, allowing intuition and intention to coexist. Working primarily with acrylic and mixed media, she builds layered surfaces that feel both familiar and dreamlike, inviting the viewer to slow down, look closer, and discover quiet details meant to be felt more than explained.

At the heart of her work is an exploration of hope, peace, and love as enduring elements of the world we inhabit. Each painting is created as a visual space for reflection, a place where curiosity, belonging, and emotional renewal can exist together. Painting has become her way of offering light: gentle reminders of hope, healing, and the beauty found both around us and within us.

Through every piece, Rosemarie hopes to help others reconnect with themselves, with nature, and with the quiet stories that bind us all.
