Rhonda Roskos was born with an 'art instrument' in her hand; a passion that still flourishes today. Along with her love for photography, she is able to 'create' in both mediums. Some of her works have been published, most recently in the Arabian Horse Times January 2007 issue.
"My 4th grade teacher would let me paint the classroom windows. I created a technique of using straws from an old broom, learning to pay attention to the details. Reading the "Black Stallion" series at a young age, truely inspired me towards the Arabian breed in my artworks"
As a teenager, Rhonda's family owned/showed Arabians throughout the Midwest at both open breed & Arabian shows. Then as adults, Rhonda and her sister Mona, co-owned and showed several Arabians, their star being DD Talgaris (5x Top Ten Gelding).
Their youngest sister, Kathy, became very ill several years ago. Along with her son, Tyler, afflicted with Duchene's disease (muscular dystrophy), required Rhonda & Mona to turn their energies towards them. When Kathy passed away, Rhonda used her painting as an outlet for grief.
After being asked to donate a painting to another horse breed's cause, the idea of donating a piece of her art to the Pyramid Society's Annual Art Auction became a goal. Therefore, Rhonda sent her first donation in memory of her sister Kathy, and in honor of her nephew, Tyler.
