Rebecca has enjoyed performing on local stages in the Capitol Region of NY, as well as in Boston, MA, and as far off as San Miguel de Allende Mexico. In roles ranging from traditional to absurd, Rebecca delights in transforming herself into various characters, whether they reflect elements from her daily life, or mirror an alter ego from a parallel universe. As she expands into film and television work, Rebecca, enjoys developing new roles, accents and alternate personalities, both on and off camera.

VISUAL ARTS:
Rebecca Jayne Boswell, native of Albany, NY, has had various forms of artistic and creative training, including formal studio hours at Boston University’s College for the Fine Arts in Boston, MA, and the Belles Artes and Instituto de Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
Rebecca enjoys creating something out of nothing, piecing together disparate parts to create a unified whole, and finding art within the unexpected. For Rebecca, each piece is about the process and the choices that are made to create each line and define each space. It is the artist’s hope that others will find in her work the same pleasure and joy that she experiences during its creation.
