Frank Rose
Frank Rose was known to
many in Tucson as the retired pastor of Sunrise Chapel, a renowned
watercolor artist, accomplished lecturer, and avid hiker.
Painting was a beloved
hobby all his life. He was a member and past president of the
Southern Arizona Watercolor Guild.
After he retired, Frank
turned his eye to the flowers he saw on hikes on Mt. Lemmon as
subject matter for his paintings and photographs.
With help from botanists
but with no formal training, he became enough of an authority
on the local flora to publish popular field guides to the wildflowers
and trees of the Santa Catalina mountains.
