| LINDA ROSSIN CREATES THE 2014 COMMEMORATIVE EGG FOR THE FIRST LADY |
|
Linda Rossin was honored by being asked to create the First Lady Commemorative Egg for 2014 by the American Egg Board. The only criteria was that the theme be tied to the White House’s Annual Easter Egg Roll and a real chicken egg be used. As a painter of fine art miniatures this challenging project of working on a delicate blown-out eggshell took nearly two months to prepare, design, and paint miniature scenes of the White House, bunnies, chicks, Bo - the First Family’s Portuguese water dog, abundant colorful eggs, and children delighting in the joys of Easter on the South Lawn. The elegant base on which the egg rests was also meticulously designed and constructed by Linda
Although this may not be the only “painted” egg ever presented to a First Lady, it is the first Mrs. Obama has received. The 37th Commemorative Egg was presented to First Lady Michelle Obama on behalf of America’s egg farmers by AEB Chairman Paul Sauder and President & CEO Joanne Ivy, Monday, April 21st at the 136th White House Easter Egg Roll. Presiden Obama attended the presentation.
