Navarro was exposed to the arts since her birth because her mother was an artist who worked with several mediums. At an early age, Navarro began to learn and draw the human body on the wet sand which was in her home's patio.

Her first artwork consisted of conceptual art and explored the semiotic meanings and possibilities of her name.
Her name "Rosa" means both "rose" and "pink" in Spanish.
There are other photographs where she utilizes her body as a vehicle to represent herself.
Her artwork can be classified as self-portraits.
Navarro has exhibited in group and solo exhibitions in Colombia.
She has received awards and won second place at the First Salon Colombo-americano in 1982.
Navarro currently lives and has her gallery in Santo Tomas, Atlantico Colombia.
She is also currently working on an artwork titled Rosalogico which depicts the human existence as a unique phenomenon inside the beauty that art can only create.
