Your Instructor
Rose Gilbey
Rose grew up with art allaround her.
Her parents met while studying art at East Sydney Technical College so it
was natural for Rose to follow in their footsteps.
Rose has produced art in many forms and is not limited to the traditional
painting and drawing genre
For example, after leaving school she become a Florist and worked in this
trade for 30 or so years. This was a career in which she could combine
her creativity and her love of nature as an art form.
After having a family and while still working as a florist, she decided to
pursue her formal art education. After attaining an Associate Diploma in
Fine Art at the Pernith Technical college, Rose completed a B.A of Fine
Art at The National Art School in Sydney, majoring in painting and
drawing
