Art By Rose J
Creating magic one paper strip at a time
Starry Night painted with paper strips, Rose J.
Rose J was born and raised in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and in 2008, she made the United States her new home in pursuit of the American Dream. She is passionate about creating joy through intricate, handmade designs. Her journey into paper art began during the stillness of the pandemic, when the world slowed down, Rose found comfort and connection in creativity. What started as cheerful shadowboxes filled with paper roses, made to lift the spirits of family and friends across the U.S. and Europe, soon grew into a deep love for quilling, also known as paper filigree. This centuries old art form involves rolling, shaping, and gluing strips of paper to create beautifully detailed designs. Rose is especially drawn to on edge quilling, a technique where the paper is shaped along its edge rather than flat, giving the artwork dimension, texture, and a sculptural quality. Every piece she creates is a labor of love, crafted with care, patience, and intention. Her favorite part of this journey is introducing people to the unexpected beauty of paper art, especially those who’ve never seen or heard of quilling before
