Her primary medium is oil, but she continues to dabble in acrylic painting and often uses acrylic for the underpainting to her pieces. She finds that having a strong color base brings out the vibrancy of the oil paint placed on top. Bold colors have always drawn her in, and she loves a happy, playful piece of art! She pours a lot of emotion into her work, all with the intent of bringing joy to the world. The ability of art to elicit strong emotions in people has always fascinated her and it is always her desire to elicit positive emotions with her work. Ultimately, she wants people to feel happy when they look at her artwork. Stef paints with a lot of color because she finds that color brings happiness and lightens the space that it occupies. You’ll find a variety of subjects in her work to include florals, landscapes, still life and animals that are often quite whimsical!\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"summer-of-love-series-love-bug","title":"Summer of Love Series - Love Bug","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSome paintings make you smile before you even realize it — \u003ci\u003eLove Bug\u003c\/i\u003e is one of them.
