Ever"on the alert", this magnificent predator doesn't miss much that goes on in his immediate <br /> vicinity. <br /> Although drawn to modeling in clay at a very young age,Rosetta's formal art training was in commercial ad,cidminating at <br /> the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles.Once established in a successfrd graphic design aver,the urge to pursue her <br /> love of creating in three dimensions resurfaced and now she is sculpting full-time. <br /> Her subjects are animals,another childhood passion.Stuffed animals took the place of dolls,and recuning nightmares of being <br /> stalked by big cats evolved into wonder-filled dreams of friendly encounters with them.Admiration and respect for the grace. <br /> power,and nobility of the wild ones is evident in Rosetta's sculptures,which capture their spirit,form,and movement in a <br /> unique hard-edged yet fluid style. <br /> Rosetta has exhibited extensively both nationally and internationally,has completed corporate.public and private eommiuions <br /> and has received nu:mous awards for her work."I don't consider creating sculpture to be part of my job. Whether it was <br /> carving animals out of soap as a child,trying to capture the personality of my fiance in a clay portrait while still at art school, <br /> or carving building scraps into decorative elements for the house my husband and I designed and built in a Redwood forest, <br /> sculpture has always been something I have dons for the pure joy of it <br />
