ABOUT US

RoosArt is a street art collective centered around artist Rosalie de Graaf, also known as RoosArt. What began as her personal dream has now grown into a worldwide phenomenon. Today, Rosalie is an internationally recognized street artist, known for her colorful style, striking murals, and powerful social messages.

​

Under her leadership, Team RoosArt was formed: a collective of talented artists from across the Netherlands. Together, we create large-scale murals both at home and abroad, transforming everything from abandoned buildings to iconic cityscapes. Our art brings color, energy, and connection wherever it goes.

 

From Doesburg to Bangkok – RoosArt leaves a lasting impression all over the world.

MY STORY

My name is Rosalie de Graaf (1999), a passionate artist from the Netherlands. I discovered my love for painting at the age of fourteen and have been creating art ever since. At eighteen, I founded my own art business, which has since grown into an internationally recognized brand. Within a couple years I've become one of the biggest artists in the world of street art.

​

I specialize in realistic street art, bringing walls to life with vibrant, detailed works. I'm known for my huge (hyper)realistic wall paintings. I've painted around 200 murals all around the world. Alongside my murals, I founded the RoosArt Academy—the first street art school in the Netherlands—where I share my knowledge and inspire a new generation of artists. Through the RoosArt Shop, I also provide high-quality Montana Cans spray paint and art supplies.

​

My work has received national recognition. I was honored with the Best Young Entrepreneur of the Netherlands Award (2019) and the Bep van de Velden Award (2021) for female entrepreneurship. In 2023, I proudly won the Dutch Street Art Awards – People’s Favorite. Some highlights of my projects include one of the largest murals in the Netherlands (Oss) and the complete transformation of a children’s amusement park in Groenlo.

​

I do a lot of commissioned work for people, businesses and organisations. I decided to quit medicine and set my medical career completely aside. Making art is my passion. It's something that I want to give my undivided attention to. I want to become a great artist and show other girls (and boys) that street art and graffiti is not only meant for men.

 

I had my first art exhibition in Holland in September 2018. In the same month I got nominated for the Street Art Awards Benelux 2018. I ended up in the top 5 of the category ''People's favorite'', a exciting achievement. I regulary appear in Dutch newspapers, radio and television shows. I got to travel to Asia and collaborated with big artists like Kenji Chai, who is one of the biggest street artists in Asia. I also did an art show in Bali together with Rony Indô, an French-Indonesian prince. I do a lot of commissioned work for people and big businesses like Tele 2, van der Valk Hotel, Organon, Sigma Coatings, Heutink, Silo Art Tour, Elephant Parade and BP.

 

t's amazing to share your passion with as many people as possible!

Collaborations

TEAM ROOSART

​Since 2022, RoosArt – the street art project founded by artist Rosalie de Graaf – has grown into a vibrant collective of artists known as Team RoosArt. What started as a solo mission quickly became too big for one person, leading Rosalie to start building a team. Every year, she trains new interns, many of whom stay on after their internship to become part of the team.

​​

Today, Team RoosArt includes more than 20 creative freelancers: a mix of artists personally trained by Rosalie and independent professionals who collaborate on large-scale murals under the Team RoosArt name. Together, we create bold and inspiring street art projects both locally and around the world.

​

Team RoosArt is more than just a group of artists – it's a growing brand and creative movement aiming to bring street art to a global stage. From schools and community buildings to city walls across continents, we transform blank spaces into powerful visual stories.
