The Story of Rossi Kelton
I was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, where I first discovered the joy of
drawing as a child—often sketching in class instead of listening to the
teacher. Art became my first language of expression, long before I could
articulate what I was feeling or experiencing. When I was twelve, my
family moved to the U.S., settling in Newark, New Jersey. Amid the
uncertainty of a new country and culture, I found comfort in the
familiarity of paint and canvas.
