Rosetta

Art Brokerage: Rosetta American Artist: Though drawn to modeling in clay at a very young age, Rosetta's formal art training was in commercial art, culminating at the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles. Once established in a successful graphic design career, the urge to pursue her love of creating in three dimensions resurfaced and now she is sculpting full-time. Her subjects are animals, another childhood passion. Stuffed animals took the place of dolls, and recurring nightmares of being stalked by big cats evolved into wonder-filled dreams of friendly encounters with them. Admiration and respect for the grace, power, and nobility of the wild ones is evident in Rosetta's sculptures, which capture their spirit, form, and movement in a unique hard-edged yet fluid style. Rosetta is a well-known sculptor who was awarded the Edith H. & Richman Proskauer Prize for non-traditional sculpture at the National Sculpture Society's 79th Annual Awards Exhibition. It was selected for the honor from forty-five works (chosen from 474 submissions) on display in the Jennewein and Noble galleries at Brookgreen Gardens, South Carolina.
