Polite Conversations w/ Rosemary


Hi Rosemary. I don't know much about you. Perfect chance to describe yourself to me in 3 words.
Hm.. Goofy. Observant... Fearless!

I stumbled upon the photo with you in the UNIQLO ad. Tell me about that.
UNIQLO was actually the only "company" I've modeled for. After I did the ad for them, I got offered to be a part of a lot more modeling projects.

Do you get the chance to model often? If so what company's have you modeled for?
I have been modeling often actually. I've shot for Missbehave Magazine, Paper Magazine and artists like Silas Shabelewska and Adam Cantor.

What is your current occupation?
I'm currently a freelance model and actress. I just finished working on a film with Peru Ana. They're amazing, I love them. I also work on my cartoon doing art shows and selling merch. For the next couple months, I'll be helping to produce a film for my friend over at Montclair University.

I enjoy the Rosie cartoons. How did you come up with the concept?
Thanks! Well, I used to intern at Downtown Disney in Walt Disney World (Florida) and it was actually Mickey Mouse who inspired me to make my own character. (My cartoon isn't a Nazi, however haha)

What inspires you to draw the cartoons?
My inspiration is usually a strong emotion. Extreme happiness or extreme sadness, embarrassment, warmth- like much "art" they're all simply based on something I'm feeling.

Do you have any upcoming artshows?
Actually, I don't. If you'd like to check out some of my work, I have a flickr- www.flickr.com/rosielovesyou. I'm always looking to be in a show though! ;)

You've got a laid back style, what do you enjoy doing on your free time?
They say you can tell a lot about a person by what they do in their free time. I recently went camping for the first time- so fun!!! I love thrift shopping. I hang out with my boyfriend a lot, he's the best. I also spend a lot of time with my boys in the ADHD crew. I go to the city all the time. Spending time with my friends is important to me- they're all so talented and we feed off each other's energy.

I see you are a big fan of Daria, could you relate to her?
I LOVE Daria! She's so witty. I definitely relate to her. She does everything how she wants to do it, but manages to keep a soft side for the people she loves. Daria keeps it real!

Lastly, have any last words?
Follow your bliss!
