Award winning artist, Rose Kamma Morrison lives on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.  Rose has exhibited her arts throughout US and Canada, and has her art work hung all over the globe. 
​
Usher Syndrome has taught her to look, feel and create with the beauty of the West Coast as her ever inspiring canvas.  Having to adjust from realism to abstracts is just another form of adaptation in her journey of art.  She wants to take you all on a journey…using color and design of alcohol inks that will light the fires of your imagination.
