LINDA ROSE LAROCHELLE graduated from the San Francisco Art Institute with a B.F.A. in Printmaking and has done graduate work at the University of Maryland, VCU and the Art League. While at the Art Institute her focus was on fine line etching. Later she branched out to explore color with pastels and watercolors.

Her interest has shifted again to relief prints as a vehicle for pattern, color and texture in composition. Many of her prints are "unique variations", meaning that they are one of a kind because the ink has been applied by hand in non- identical ways. Thus, each print will be unique, making them similar to mono prints.

"I'm pursuing a visual impact and meaning through exploring shape, color, texture and pattern." Linda Rose Larochelle
