The Phoenix New Times did a BEAUTIFUL story on Rose Johnson that came out yesterday. I don’t think that there are enough WONDERFUL words to describe Rose, her art and her life. Thanks to all of the amazing people, artists and friends who have made her memorials and tributes possible during this difficult time. I am certain that the event at the IceHouse will be over the top and very fitting. There will also be a “Rose Show”, photography tribute at The Daughters of the Frozen North Gallery with the works of photographer and Rose’s long time friend, Marilyn Szabo. Don’t miss it! Photographs will be available for purchase.
