Jennifer's body of work encapsulates her creative vision which she tailors to the specific needs of each project. New challenges are of the utmost to Jennifer. So when Marcia approached her to photograph her guinea pigs for an annual calendar, needless to say, Jennifer was eager to take on a new exotic project with little idea of what to expect. Since Marcia & Jennifer have teamed up, Marcia's entertaining arrays of costumes & Jennifer's keen attention to lighting and backdrop compositions have truly uncovered a cavalcade of cute costumed cavies! www.jenniferbaciocco.com

Alice hand paints designs and borders, and creates products that are fun, colorful, expressive and personal. "... When you look at the art at Rose Street Design, you can imagine me sitting in my somewhat messy studio surrounded by pottery from Firenze, tiny tomatoes still on the vine, vases of flowers, seashells, pieces of old fabric.....and more! The art that I produce comes form my mind filled by my heart and soul. It is a gift to me and from me to you."
