Painted by Rose

Houston based artist Rose Tylinski (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist with specialized focus in portraiture, surrealism, and realism. Tylinski is born to a Peruvian mother and Polish father who met in Queens, New York. With a blended heritage and cultural backgrounds lending to their artwork, Tylinski uses paint as a narrative approach to identifying culture and how it defines us. This is often displayed through figurative works representing Latin and African American people. Tylinski’s promotion of identity begs the viewer to identify commonalities amongst diversity to disrupt social barriers and build community through relatable posture, iconography, and common cultural references.
