Artist Bio: Rosanna Lynne Welter has roots in traditional quilting, but she quickly transitioned to textile art once she began to explore the exciting processes and techniques advancing the fiber arts movement. As a self-taught artist, her work is filled with naivety, dimension, whimsy, texture, and lots of thread. Rosanna has competed and been juried into exhibits locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. Her work is in private collections and has been published in multiple books and catalogs. Her early works were exhibited at Quilt National, International Quilt Expo in Innsbruck Austria, and the Musée des Tissue in Lyon, France. She is also a past recipient of a Utah Arts Council/National Endowment for the Arts Individual Artist Grant. Currently, Rosanna is a member of 4 Common Corners, an invitational fiber arts group of the Four Corners region (4commoncorners.com), and Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA.com), where she is a Juried Artist and has served on the CO/UT/WY Regional Exhibition Committee. Locally, she served as Exhibitions Chair for the Utah Surface Design Group and recently retired as Treasurer. Rosanna, an Idaho native who has lived most of her life in Utah, is currently focusing on her daily art practice at her in-home studio in West Valley, Utah, where she lives with her husband, a rescue doggie, and a rescue kitty.
