From a young age, it was clear Roberta's first love was art. At the age of 9 years old, her mom signed me up for after-school art classes. When she was 10, she entered a tv guide ad contest and was chosen for art classes but was unable to take them because she was too young to enroll in their school.
As Roberta continued to hone her craft, Roberta became interested in experimenting with different mediums and techniques. As she entered her teenage years, she would get hired to draw murals on kids' bedroom walls. In high school, some of her drawings were in the school exhibit.
