Artist Statement:
As a child growing up in Palm
Springs, California, Stephanie
began showing an interest in
art by emulating her artist
mother. At an early age she

Throughout her schooling, art
was a major focus in her
studies. She began selling
her paintings at off campus
street fairs while studying at
the University of California

Although Stephanie constantly
experiments with various

most joy in watercolor. Like
many other artists, she
appreciates the immediacy and

She is inspired by the works
of John Singer Sargent,
Winslow Homer, and other
American Impressionists.
Stephanie’s passion for

her viewers. “They are
portraits of a singular
moment, captured immediately
by camera and quick sketches
then transformed by my
memories, emotions and style.
I hope to share that moment
with the viewers, as well as
to evoke memories of similar
moments in their own lives. I
also hope to provoke a pause,
