Diana Rosa
Brampton, Canada
Lighthearted and jovial by nature, Diana’s contemporary paintings depict people in varied scenarios of indulgence. Whether it is a quiet moment alone in the woods, or a tantalizing rendezvous in the tub, Diana creates private moments in carefree or comedic ways. Her narratives often include humorous sexual tension between unlikely bedfellows, enough to elicit a chuckle from even the most stoic art lover. “I create a visual dialogue where everything is possible and magic is the queen,” says Diana. “[There is] a subtle injection of ambiguity that blurs the gap between the ordinary and the fantastic. The background of this sub-world appears to be transformed into an innocent children’s fantasy that almost looks like a dream.”

Artist Statement
I am always fascinated with the human story that we all live- often untold, sometimes unrecognized, but always significant. My paintings reflect the natural beauty of human emotions. They are a bridge from my imagination to theirs, and although the story I mean to tell may differ from what the viewer ultimately takes away, what is most important is that we have shared the tale.
Elegance and sensuality are combined with spirituality in a contemplative, surreal environment. The landscape has an endless yearning, a nostalgic state that currently looks into the future, expecting a new event to occur. I strive to draw honest and intriguing lines, investigate the beautiful and odd, and illuminate the common in an environment of graphic symbols and layered patterns.
I create a visual dialogue where everything is possible, and magic is the queen. Humans, animals, and plants are some of the themes I use in my drawings, a subtle injection of ambiguity that blurs the gap between the ordinary and the fantastic.
The background of this sub-world appears to be transformed into an innocent children’s fantasy that almost looks like a dream.
When creating a piece, I take what is most personal and assume it is universal. I use my experiences and emotional responses to turn them into a narrative work that gives viewers a peek into their own lives. The stories I tell are about the inner worlds revealed — what we should talk about and feel about our bodies, families, and life’s choices.
All elements drive my creativity, along with a light touch of the paintbrush, a feeling of peace, and a sense of a place.
I strive to recreate the peaceful, contemporary landscape in my art to expand upon the beautiful palette that nature provides us.
I appreciate the human form and the emotions within, so I explore acrylic mediums to convey the limitless individuality the human form embodies. My drawings portray a soul, not an actual person–pulling from the universal level instead of our clouded worldly view. They are more than their surface, much like us. They are my perspective and appreciation of who I am and what I know: a woman who embraces passion.
