Meredith Rose

Born 1979 into a family of artists, Blue Starseed (Meredith Rose) grew up in Philadelphia and a remote island in Maine. She received her BFA in Painting from Rhode Island School of Design and completed their European Honors Program in Rome. She also studied at Edinburgh College of Art, Scotland.

Blue Starseed exhibits in wilderness, and once in awhile in a box or "building" to redefine what a solo exhibition really is.

Visionary experiences, truth, and outerspace influence Blue Starseed's figurative paintings. Expressive figures that she creates are painted from live models and incorporated into her memories of past and future lifetimes. Blue Starseed's recent work focuses on self portraits of parallel lives. She paints on hemp linen for environmental reasons. Besides in nature, she has exhibited in galleries such as A Gallery, Santa Fe, New Mexico, San Juan College, New Mexico, the Shumei International Institute, Colorado, and the Centro Cultural, Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico. Blue Starseed currently lives in southern Colorado, USA.
