Camille Jean Verdelaire D. Dela Rosa (born 29 July 1982) is a Filipino painter who studied at the University of the Philippines, Diliman. Her works include Impressionist gardens, landscapes, churches, beaches, portraits of women, and morbid surrealism. [1]
Camille had her first solo exhibition at the age of 16. [2] She is the daughter of the late Ibarra Y. Dela Rosa, a noted painter and professor at Philippine Women's University and Ethel Dimacuha who is also a painter and a professor in Art History & Humanities at Lyceum of the Philippines, Technological University and St. Scholastica College.
At the age of 10, Camille became part of the original cast member of the iconic children's variety show "Ang TV" that aired on ABS-CBN from year 1992 to 1997. [3]
As a self-taught artist, Camille gradually developed a distinct style separate from her father’s work, transitioning from impressionism toward surrealism with darker thematic elements. She has received recognition in several Philippine art competitions, including an Honorable Mention at the Art Association of the Philippines Competition (2005), a Top 40 placement at the Philippine Art Awards (2009), and second place at the Pagalingan Pinay Art Competition (2009).

In 2017, her steampunk-themed painting was selected as the official CD and DVD album cover for Machine Messiah by the Brazilian metal band Sepultura.
Her work was also featured in Phantastische Venus (2015), an international exhibition held in Viechtach, Germany, showcasing works by 70 female surrealist artists from around the world. [4]
