Linda Rossin is an award-winning New Jersey artist, who has been professionally painting poignant portrayals of birds and mammals in both large and diminutive scale since 1988. She is among only a handful of professional American wildlife painters who embody animals within the confines of traditional miniature art.* Large or small, acrylic or oil, Ms. Rossin’s work has been displayed in prestigious exhibitions and museums across the United States, as well as in other countries around the world.

As a signature member of the Society of Animal Artists (SAA) and Artists for Conservation (AFC), she has been recognized with Medals of Excellence from both organizations — the highest accolade paid to an artist by these societies. In addition to these two outstanding awards, she has been recognized with countless Best of Show and First Place honors as a result of the unfailing quality of her work. Ms. Rossin is most notably known for her miniature paintings and is also a signature member of Miniature Artists of America (MAA), made up of international artists whose work reflects the highest standards in miniature art today. The unfailing quality of Linda’s masterful miniatures led to an invitation to create the 2014 White House Commemorative Egg for former First Lady, Michelle Obama.
