Rosita Scott is 40 years old, proud of her age and heritage. African American history plays an important part in her creativity. Stories passed down from her southern relatives inspired her as a child to begin making dolls and dollhouses from household items. Since that time she has continued to create on a constant basis. Strongly influenced by color, nature and music, she especially loves the looseness and fluidity of pastels. She uses color with vibrancy and passion. Setting her drawings in intimate and personal situations, Rosita loves a sense of mystery and sites Sherlock Holmes and Alfred Hitchcock as influences.
