Rosie Ivonne Bair was born on March 23,1975 and lives in South Florida with her husband Jason Bair and their four ethusiastic children. She has been playing with polymer clay since she was young, but only recently started developing a true skill for the body form and for fantasy. Fantasy has been a subject of interest since childhood. Being that she had a very troublesome childhood it was only natural for her to go where she was the most at peace within her OWN imagination. So it is no mystery why she has chosen faeries, mermaids, and other fantasy creatures as a consistent theme in her artwork.

In mid 2003, she created her first sculpted faeries and was approached at her local renaissance festival by a store retailer whom fell in love with her work and wanted them for her store. Thus it all began. She then spread her wings into many of the local fantasy and metaphysical stores. Not yet had she decided to try a career as a fantasy artist. An accidental but amazing opportunity fluttered before her with Land of Myth & Not!

The medium she uses is polymer clay. She enjoys working most, in the quite hours of the night. She is inspired by all of her highly spirited goofy children. But also by the work of Anne Geddes, Amy Brown, Brian Froud, the late Jim Henson and the many many fantasy movies from her own childhood.

Artist’s personal quote: ”Why do I like to sculpt widdle baby faeries?
Because in the baby is truth, sweet beauty and untampered innocence.... and in the faerie is magic, laughter and bliss.
