I'm Roslyn Eaton
Born in Redwood City California and raised in Santa Cruz, I decided to put down roots in Central Oregon 29 years ago. My English Bulldog Isabella (Izzy) and I think of things to do together with our free time. She chooses sleeping mostly, but sometimes it's tending a garden of produce, running, swimming and being with friends. In 1988 I introduced a child into the world, my son Ashton Eaton. Raising Ashton I did everything a single mother could to give him the best opportunities to fulfill his dreams. Those dreams came true in 2012 when he won Olympic gold medal in the decathlon. He's happily married to equally talented Olympian, Canadian Brianne Theisen-Eaton. Until now a vast majority of my life was devoted to helping him make his dreams come true. As a result I put mine on hold. What you are witnessing with my art is something that took me a long time to find. I've kept it to myself for so long that I didn't even know about it! What is "it?" Expression, I think, and passion. I've never participated in anything resembling art, I just bought a $5 watercolor paint set one day and started making images on a piece of computer paper. That day kept evolving eventually into what you see here. I'm very surprised and elated by my ladies who love to visit you and me. They are born in my mind, so I let them out.
