♡ Welcome ♡

Hi, I’m Rosa Holm, a watercolor artist based in Tromsø.

My art draws inspiration from the breathtaking landscapes and wildlife of Northern Norway, intertwining storytelling with subtle nods to galaxies far, far away. I delve into themes of light and shadow, emotion and significance.

I primarily work in watercolor, employing stippling and fine line techniques for intricate details. Additionally, I offer limited edition prints, original pieces, greeting cards, and smaller artworks, occasionally experimenting with digital watercolor to fuel my creative growth.

Thank you for visiting! I hope my art resonates with you.

About the Bookmark: Stardust and Shadow

​Designed with passionate book lovers in mind, this fantasy-inspired bookmark brings a touch of magic to your reading routine.

​The creation process is a blend of two worlds: it started with a traditional watercolor painting on paper to capture the soft, organic textures. After scanning the piece into my computer, I continued the work on my drawing tablet painting digitally to enhance the shadows and add the vibrant, glowing light effects.

​The artwork explores the balance between hardship and hope. While the dark, ink-like smoke represents threatening darkness, the golden stardust melting across the figure's face symbolizes resilience and light.

​To bring this cosmic theme to life, the artwork is printed on heavy, high-quality 300–330 gsm pearlescent shimmer paper. The luxurious surface beautifully catches the light and glitters when you move it, perfectly complementing the golden stardust in the artwork while giving the bookmark a sturdy, premium feel. It serves as a beautiful reminder for your reading journeys: no matter how dark the story gets, there is always a glimmer of hope and light.

(​Note: This listing is for the 'Stardust and Shadow' bookmark only. The 'Golden Moon' bookmark shown in the photos is not included, but you can find it as a recommendation further down the page to complete your cosmic set!)

About the Bookmark: Golden Moon

​Designed with passionate book lovers in mind, this fantasy-inspired bookmark brings a touch of celestial magic to your reading routine.

​The creation process is a blend of two worlds: it started with a traditional watercolor painting on paper to capture the soft, organic textures. After scanning the piece into my computer, I continued the work on my drawing tablet painting digitally to enhance the shadows and add a vibrant, metallic gold effect that makes the moon look incredibly realistic.

​The artwork is inspired by the real-world science of the atmosphere. When the moon hangs low on the horizon, the earth's atmosphere scatters the blue light, transforming the lunar surface into a glowing, honey-colored orb of liquid gold.

​To bring this cosmic theme to life, the artwork is printed on heavy, high-quality 300–330 gsm pearlescent shimmer paper. The luxurious surface beautifully catches the light and glitters when you move it, perfectly complementing the golden moon texture while giving the bookmark a sturdy, premium feel. It is the perfect companion for your reading journeys, and pairs beautifully with our "Stardust and Shadow" bookmark.

​(Note: This listing is for the 'Golden Moon' bookmark only. The 'Stardust and Shadow' bookmark shown in the photos is sold separately.)
