I love having a role in the community & creating amazing things with these two hands.

Rosalind, aka Rozzie ("Raw-zee") Lee, is a visual artist and communications professional from Calgary, Alberta. She is passionate about delivering meaningful and purpose-driven art within the community.


Her background in fine arts, graphic design and illustration are applied every day in her favourite mediums of painting, drawing and chalk!

She loves bringing a sense of whimsy and fun into her creations and inspiring the next generation of artists has always been a driving force in her creations. It's always exciting to work with people, creating art live to show others that with just a few materials and two hands, a person can create amazing things.

Her business as "Calgary Chalk Artist" has led her to work with many other entrepreneurs and small businesses, interior designers and marketing teams for brand activations and installations.

Rozzie graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Design from Alberta University of the Arts, from the Visual Communications Program.

FAQ

How does pricing work? 

  • Generally, as each client is unique with specific needs, I provide quotes on a client by client basis after accessing the project. 
  • Custom Interior Painted Murals  - Take your interior spaces to the next level with a creative and vibrant edge. Large scale painted artwork for interiors, office spaces, interior show homes, bedrooms - Commissions start at $600+
  • Commercial Menu boards - Please contact with info about your needs as each client varies greatly of what they need and are working with. 
    - I don't make chalkboard signs, but I can source unframed chalkboards or have contacts of some professional chalkboard makers. 
  • Custom Wedding Chalkboards - I can draw from your provided signs or I have a few on hand I could rent or sell...  (4 wks or more notice required typically).
  • General Hourly Design Rate - $100/hr
  • Live Artist Rate - $125/hr (caricatures, etc.)

How much notice do you need?

  • New clients and large projects are typically booking at least 4 weeks in advance at this time, but let me know what your looking for and I can see if I can accommodate.

Do you do painted signs (permanent)

  • Yes, contrary to my "name", most of the work I do is not actually with real chalk. I often work with Chalk Markers or Paint.  Chalk Markers are dry to the touch and best removable from non-porous surfaces with a damp cloth. For paints, I'm usually using latex and acrylic media.
Do you travel?

  • I am based out of Calgary and as a full time artist I am able to travel when required with travel and accommodation covered by the client. Serving Banff, Canmore, Edmonton, Airdrie, Okotoks, Medicine Hat and other areas, please inquire.

Sidewalks? 

  • Ahhh summer - My services are available for outdoor brand activations and marketing opportunities that involve drawing on sidewalks, roads, walls as permitted. Quotes vary as each client has unique needs, send me an email with what you have in mind. Note that it can be considered graffiti on public property. 

What's an Outdoor Colouring book?

  • Great family friendly artist led activity! A service I offer during summer which I call "Outdoor Colouring Book" is where I "paint" on sidewalks/roads in large format that people can colour with sidewalk chalks. Fun stuff like animals, dinosaurs, announcement messages, etc. I can work with a theme you have if applicable. This work fades over time from the rain and being walked on, and is also removable with a pressure washer and a nylon broom.
