If you are new to my world, welcome! Let me quickly introduce myself so you know who's behind this guide...
I'm Rosso (Emerald Crimson)
I'm a professional painter based in London/Oxford, and founder of RossoArtSchool.
After more than sixteen years of painting I realised how many artists were searching for what I had spent years developing: a method to connect realism with abstract expression.
I began sharing my approach in 2018 and as the demand grew through my community on Instagram, I decided to create something bigger.
In 2024, I founded Rosso Art School to bring together everything I’ve learned through years of painting and teaching — shaping it into a clear, structured framework that artists everywhere can follow.
In less than a year, over 200 artists have already enrolled, alongside more than 500 students who have attended my workshops and art retreats in person.
The school is proudly supported by Cass Art, Michael Harding Paints, and ProArte Brushes — and continues to grow into a vibrant international community for artists who, like me, value growth, authenticity, and true freedom of expression.
