| The latest from Professor Tursiart's Ray Pistols & Accoutrements. Enjoy! |
| Hi, thanks for taking the time to learn more about me and what I do. My name is Rosemarie Tursi. I've been working as an artist in a professional capacity for several years now. I was educated at Pasadena Art Center College of Design and California State University Fullerton. I hold a bachelors degree in Art with a double concentration in Animation and Illustration. Past work includes working as a production assistant with Cartoon Network Studios, a prop, costume and set designer with several Inland Empire based independent production companies, and as an instructor of drawing and painting with Mission:Renaissance Fine Arts Studios. Currently, I am illustrating children's books and showing in various Galleries in the Pomona Arts Colony and Riverside Arts community. Although my formal training has been primarily in drawing, I also take a great interest in painting, ceramics, sculpture, crafts, glass lampworking, gourd and wood craft, photography, sewing and various mixed media projects incorporating all of the above. I'm also a bit of a naturalist. I enjoy studying archeology, paleontology and zoology; not as a profession, but as a hobby and personal interest. Aspects of these interests often find their way into my art. I grew up reading Marvel Comics, and Sci Fi. My favorites were Fantastic Four, Silver Surfer and Star Trek. I also have a deep love for Transformers. I attend Botcon and Comic Con every year. You can see more of my art at: [link] I sell my art at: [link] |
I like your other work too, the illustrations are playful and you have a wonderful eye for color that supports that.
I noticed you have quite a resume including schooling in animation? Im saving up to go back to school myself and finish my associates in Animation. I'm also always interested in connecting with people already working professionally.
Thanks for your comments. I did work in Animation for a little while, but I've kind of switched gears in the last couple of years. Do you have a specific school you're intereted in? I'd love to chat more - it's always great to talk with other artists in similar fields.

Well, I had 3 semesters at Delaware College of Art and Design, and have been thinking of going back to finish my associates (possibly switching to fine arts or illustration). I'm generally getting back into art after a couple year hiatus. One of the things that has been holding me back is the real world application of the degree; especially since most companies these days outsource a good chunk of their jobs to other countries. It makes working a day job, and honing my skills in my free time that much more sensible. There is also the fact that all the work is on the west coast anyways.
Let me see if I can figure out how to email you a bunch of photos at once... though I think it might be easier to just upload them all here at my next update, so that everyone else who wants can use them too.
