She
painted her first acrylic on canvas in college while studying a course titled,
"Theology and the Arts", at the University of Florida, Gainesville,
Florida. Rose is a Florida Gator. The painting was a self-portrait.
She was sitting on
the back porch in a rocking chair at her home in Windermere, Florida reading the Bible. The painting
depicted a visitation of the Lord
during which Rose was converted to Christianity. She became a Christian
when she was a student at the University of Florida while reading the New
Testament the summer between her freshman and sophomore year. Rose grew up
in Georgia, Alabama and Florida.
This is the back porch where I met the Christ of Calvary!

Richardson in about 1968.
My step mom took this picture of me sitting on the
back porch of our home in Windermere overlooking Wauseon Bay on the Lake
butler Chain in Florida. She took it through the sliding glass
doors from inside the den. I was a teenager in high school about
18, when this photo was taken. I loved to sit on the screened in
back porch and look at the lake and watch the rain that would come
across the lake every afternoon, this was such a gorgeous view to see
every day. I was so blessed to live on this lake, this is where I
first met the Lord Jesus, sitting in this rocking chair reading the
Bible when I was 19. I was baptized in the lake out back.
What a glorious day! This photo was taken through a glass, it is
dark, now we see the Lord as if through a glass darkly, soon we shall
see Him face to face. This is where I first met the
Lord, He came in to my life like a river of living waters, flooding my
soul with glorious, peace, love and joy. God is still working on
me today creating light within every corner of my life. He is not
finished with me yet. Thank the Lord, I am one of His Masterpieces
in progress.
It was after the birth of
her third child that she united more closely with the Lord and began painting
and designing with the Lord as her teacher. During the childbirth, which
was a c-section, she was knocked out with anesthesia, after having a spinal
injection, that didn't work. The surgeon started cutting on her stomach
and she could feel the pain and started screaming. After the cup was
placed on her nose filled with anesthesia, Rose
visited heaven in a dream and it was at this time that she united with her
Savior as the Divine Designer. In the dream, Rose was in the mountains
with the Lord. She was in the Spirit, out of the body and surrounded by
the glorious unseen Presence of the Spirit of God. She was enveloped with
the love, joy and peace of the Lord. In the mountains, she saw animals,
birds, a deer and a log cabin. She experienced the entrance to heaven, she
did not ever all the way. The doctor woke her up in the
recovery room and she knew she had to come back and take care of her baby.
She has not forgotten her visit with the Lord's Spirit and is no longer afraid
to die. She has had a taste of the glories of heaven. She paints, writes and designs through the
mind of Christ as He grants her divine vision and inspiration.
Rosalyn has produced art work in various mediums from pine cone
and floral designs, to hand-painted t-shirts, ceramics, country craft items
in wood and fabric, and canvas paintings. She has also published and
designed business cards, flyers, advertisements, logos and magazine
articles. Rose opened her own business
which she named Garlands of Grace about seventeen
years ago. She operated the business from her home.
Ten years
ago she changed the business name to Creation Enterprises. She wrote poetry and songs during this time as well as puppet
musical scripts for children. Some of her songs and poetry have been produced
and published. She has been interested in photography since she was a
child. She loves to travel and take photographs of the journey. She took a trip to Pine Mountain, Georgia with her grand daughter and the
website presently displays photos that Rose and Taylor took on the trip.
They delighted in the serenity and majesty of the mountain garden splendor at
Callaway and the surrounding area. Taylor and her grandmother Mimi have
taken lots of trips together over the years, they went to Savannah, GA and
Hilton Head, South Carolina among many other local trips that were joined by
Madalyn her sister.

"God is Love!" 1 John 4:8
"Love suffers long and is kind; love does
not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely,
does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in
iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails."
1 Cor.13:4-8
