Linda DeRosa

I was born and raised in New York, and recently a resident of Florida. As a child my father, who was a creative person, influenced my interest in art. I learned through a mixture of formal education and self teaching. My work has been shown from Queens to Long Island, and now Florida. I have won numerous awards from National Art League, Douglaston, N.Y.,Floral Park Art League, Port Washington Art League. One of my purchased works was autographed by Derek Jeter, 2 others became book covers. Presently I am a member of NAL, Santa Clara Valley WCS, MCA, Florida WCS and College of Central Florida VAS. I also had an opportunity to study under famous Watercolor Artist, Alvaro Castagnet for a week in Upstate New York. Present day favorites are Alvaro Castagnet, Joseph Zbukvic and Mary Whyte.
