Internationally known artist Karen Rossi is excited to call
Torrington her new home. Rossi's new studio is located in the heart of Torrington in the Allen Building at 27 East Main Street and houses a gallery,
showroom, workspace and classroom area.
Rossi is highly regarded for her original metal sculptures
has created more than 500 original characters... celebrating the seasons,
holidays, professions, friends and family, children, hobbies and a host of
other life-inspired themes. Her whimsical work features metal as well as broken
crystals, charms and other embellishments that make them eye catching and
unique.
Rossi is most known for her giftware designs known as Fanciful FlightsTM,
which she has licensed to major companies, enjoying worldwide sales. Fanciful
Flights are metal caricatures of people adorned by charms that tell the story
of a person's hobby or profession. Long before Rossi was involved with arts
licensing, her originals were commissioned and collected by the likes of Neiman
Marcus, Booz, Allen & Hamilton, lobbies of Hospitals, and the Hartford
Courant.
Karen's themed groupings of artwork include: Animal Kingdom, On
the Road, Celestial, Christmas, Halloween, the Glorious Garden, Just for Kids,
Paradise Island, Ladies with Red Hats, Festivities of Faith, Bistro,
Girlfriends, Celebration and Fanciful Flights TM. For details of this artwork

hosting Art Parties for over 30 years and is particularly excited to offer,
"Make your own T-town ballerinas and Mad River Mermaids." The artist
has been involved with several CT Art communities and is excited to showcase
the work of comrades and guest Artisans from Hartford, New Haven, South, and
the Litchfield Hills. The new studio will also feature a clearance area for
sales of retired Rossi giftware.
