Becky Roesler was born in Indiana and moved to Texas when she was just a few months old. She grew up near Houston with a love of nature and a crazy obsession with crayon color names. Becky always knew she was an artist. She won her first art awards in 1960’s interscholastic art competitions, and began studying art through the Houston Museum of Fine Art and local college libraries while in her teens. It was here that she found her all-time favorite painting, Bonaventure Pine, by Neo-Impressionist artist, Paul Signac, which still brings her to tears whenever she sees it. Becky became a professional floral designer and attended University of Houston until she moved to New Braunfels, Texas in the late 1970's. She earned a bachelor’s degree at Southwest Texas State University in 1982, then worked in corporate business management while creating art and operating an antiques business in her spare time. Becky became a full-time artist in 2000, and is now happily making richly layered and joyful paintings filled with ecstatic color and positive energy.
