“Last year I was afraid to hang work in the library. Now, I have a daily practice, sell portraits weekly, and I’m going to help open a local art gallery…”
— Rose Jubb
RAA Member and Ridgefield Art Gallery Artist
Rose’s whole story:
“After moving to Ridgefield in 2020 during COVID I knew if I was going to make time for my own work, it had to be something that got me back to making art. I was terrified to join the RAA at first because I thought it would be stuffy or unwelcoming. Boy, was I wrong!
I immediately felt at home and was included in so many projects. My feedback was welcomed, I’ve made so many friends in and out of the arts, and volunteering in different projects through the RAA has made this little town feel like home. I now know my barista by name and how much she enjoys encouraging young artists. I’ve met people who are real life heroes, just walking around making other people’s lives more beautiful.
Not to mention my practice has improved four fold. Last year I was afraid to hang work in the library show. Now, I have a daily practice, sell portraits weekly, and I’m going to help open a local art gallery. I get to use all my past career skills to help other artists succeed too.”
