Biography

     Anne Rosenvald Moore was born in Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, which was first mentioned in historical records in 1154. The city is known for its charming old town, fine Gothic buildings, graceful church spires, and beautiful coastline.
     Anne’s familiarity with Tallinn’s historic buildings and her appreciation of Estonia’s natural beauty inspired her to study architecture and fine arts. She studied architecture at the Estonian State University of Arts and proposed a Cultural Center for her final design.
     Anne moved to Florida in 1996 and has continued to develop her multicultural artistic career. She earned her Master of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts degree from Goddard College in Vermont and submitted the final thesis/portfolio on Finding Place for Culture.
     As a professional educator, Anne teaches art appreciation, humanities, principles of design, drawing & composition, and occasional studio art classes at several universities in Central Florida. She finds it fascinating and rewarding to work with students to create art reflecting their cultural backgrounds.
     Anne believes that art has an essential role in promoting and enriching culture. She continuously researches culture and creates art using graphite pencil, oil, acrylic, clay, and mixed media, depicting various subjects, from simple, everyday objects to complex scenery.
     Anne’s artwork has earned her numerous awards, including Best of Show at the Lake Wales Municipal Fine Art Exhibit, Second Place at the Bartow Bloomin’ Arts Festival, First Place at the Frostproof Art League, and Honorable Mention at the Winter Haven Central Park Art Festival.

My father, Helmut Rosenvald, took this picture in beautiful Tallinn, Estonia, during my visit in 2007

My father: Eestis sündinud helilooja ja muusik Helmut(h) Rosenvald. My father's picture was taken by me, Anne Rosenvald Moore, during my visit in 2007 to beautiful Tallinn, Estonia

These are my parents Helmut Rosenvald (1929-2020) and Linda-Luule Kollom (1928-2015)

Mom added another first name, Luule, because she liked it better in everyday life. My parents got married in Estonia, and if I describe it in the Estonian language: Minu vanemate abielu sõlmiti 26. detsembril 1954.a. Tallinna Jaani kirikus. My parents, Helmut and Linda Rosenvald's final resting place is in Estonia: Pärnamäe cemetery/Pärnamäe kalmistul

This ExLibris has always been in our family photo albums, and it has guided my continued interest in reading books and learning about the world and its origins. The image of this ExLibris includes symbolism from various cultures, which has encouraged me to get an education in a foreign language and understand ideas from different cultures.
