Hi, I’m Telisa!
My artistic journey began long before Roessein Art was even a dream. I've held a brush in my hand since I was eight years old, and painting and drawing have always been my passions. While I initially built a foundation in Business and Human Resources, the pull of creating art full-time was undeniable. In 2019, I took the leap and haven't looked back.
Roessein Art started as a portrait illustration business in 2012. Then, in 2018, I fell in love with the elegance of calligraphy, and by 2019, I was bringing my art to life at events. It feels natural to perform in front of people, likely because I grew up in a musically inclined family. Singing, playing guitar, and piano were all part of my life, and that comfort with performing translates beautifully to my live art.
I'm truly multi-skilled, and I love the diversity of calligraphy, engraving, and illustration. I'm passionate about serving:
Brands and PR agencies: I love helping them create impactful customer relationships by adding a personal, sentimental touch to their events.
Corporates: I find joy in helping them show appreciation to their employees with unique, personalized gifts that truly resonate.
Event planners and couples: I adore working with those who appreciate the details and want to create memorable guest experiences for weddings, bridal showers, birthdays, and other special occasions.
I've had the privilege of partnering with incredible brands like Jo Malone London, Guerlain, Gucci, and Cartier, and I'm always excited to collaborate with new clients.
Every stroke I make is filled with passion and a desire to create something special. I look forward to working with you and bringing my artistic vision to your next event, crafting memories that will last a lifetime.
