Rocío Heredia, as featured artist of BTDesign Art Gallery
in December 2001 has participated the second edition of the
Master Art Award of BTDesign, "The Master of 2001".
Her work was highly appreciated by the
International Jury
who voted her second place in both "Best Artworks"
and "Best Art Site" categories and third Best Artist
of the Year. It is BTDesign's pleasure to award Rocío
of this Special Permanent Exhibition, with the best compliments of the jury
and gallery owner.
Rocío interviews many of the guest
artists for BTDesign Art Gallery and has been evaluating
Sculptors for the Master award since 2002. She is also an
accomplished website creator.
If you get the lucky opportunity of meeting this amazing Mexican
girl you are immediately caught by her enormous passionate
energy. A Psychologist specialized in Child Psychotherapy,
Rocío recently discovered her talent for fine arts and devoted
herself to metalsmithing. She studied with master Valentin
Yotkov in New York and is a member of many metalsmithing associations.
Her constant inspiration is religion and the sacred images
and symbols of Judaism and Christianity, which she elaborates
on her highly-detailed icon masterpieces. Rocío is extraordinarily
passionate and skilled and her enormous talent has only just
started impressing the international art scene.
Rocío Heredia,
an incredibly talented young Mexican lady, whose biography
shows us how important can be art in one's life. Her
site
offers many galleries featuring her beautiful works, a series
of
interviews with other artists and a portfolio of her works
as web designer. The site is very elegant and very well
designed.
