Stephanie Rozzo
Stephanie Rozzo utilizes her Bachelor of Science in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from the University of Arizona and her background working with wild animals in wildlife rehabilitation and zoos to create accurate depictions of nature and their relationships. She uses a variety of traditional mediums and Adobe programs, applying methods fine-tuned during her time earning a Master’s Certificate from California State University Monterey Bay and her internship with National Geographic Magazine’s Art Department, 2011.
Since 2012, Stephanie has completed public art for the City of Monterey, participated in various group art shows, has created art for various labels & publications, and won multiple awards including the Popular Science and National Science Foundation Expert’s Choice Award in the 2016 Vizzies: Visualization Challenge.
Through her art, she hopes to inspire people to connect with the environment by forming a better appreciation of the beauty of nature. From 2020-2023, Stephanie has focused on creating Nature Sketch Crate: A nature watercolor & ink class in a box for beginners, with the goal of enriching people’s lives through art, nature, and environmental responsibility.
Currently, Stephanie continues Nature Sketch Crate, but she has shifted her focus to also include creating art for group shows and creating public art murals with the aim to be more involved with the local art community of Southern California and her home since 2019, Long Beach.
