Artist Statement on New York Jazz Scenes:

For the past 15 years I have lived and worked all over New York City as a jazz vocalist. The city always inspires me. I feel at home in the jazz clubs where I have worked and have grown to love the neighborhoods and their histories. This group of paintings represents scenes I’ve been a part of- and musicians I have worked with and who mean something to me. More than ever I want to paint scenes filled with happiness and inclusion. It matters to me to depict all kinds of people enjoying life together.

Barbara has recorded 6 CDs with music from the 1920s and 30s as well as more straight-ahead jazz. Living in New York City, Barbara has had a musical career as vocalist for “Vince Giordano and The Nighthawks”, “The Harry James Orchestra” as well as with her own “New Yorkers”.

Her works are included at group shows at Grinning Byrd Gallery since 1999 in her native, Cleveland, Ohio, and a special showing held at Mezzrow Jazz Club in New York City. Most recent, her works showed at art fair; XContemporary Miami in 2016, and Rosene’s debut solo-show was held at Hudson Fine Art in Hudson, Ohio in 2016.
