To read of Rose’s life, her talent and dedication to making the world a better place, was very moving. She engaged with such difficult and traumatic situations.
I love her art and look forward to seeing more pictures from East End artists in the East End Vernacular Book that I have just bought myself as a treat.
Thank you again.

A life well lived indeed.
Her paintings are wonderful.

She gave so much of herself to the community. Never to be forgotten by those of us privileged to have known her.

Ivocative studies.

I have a photo of her in her black uniform doing a knees up with her friends . I wonder if she knew this remarkable woman ?

Even to make watercolors during the bombing of London is an achievement that should be appreciated.

Love & Peace

Her early oil paintings, in a style all her own, showed such promise, so, while I am glad that she documented the blitz in watercolor, I wish she could have continued the oil paintings also. Her other philanthropic administrative work shows a great love for the people of her community. Wow! Thank you for bringing this to us.
