Small painterly portraits of children.
Perth, Western Australia Studio.
Your image reversed will minutely appear
So delicate, forcible, brilliant and clear
So small, full, and round, with a life so profound
As none ever wore
In a mirror before *
Stephanie is a Perth based artist who paints Small Portraits of Children. She holds a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Fine Arts from The University of Western Australia and was awarded the Dux of Production and Design at The West Australian Academy of Performing Arts.
She has worked nationally and internationally for companies such as Sydney Theatre Company, Belvoir St Theatre and The Australian Opera Studio.
After moving back to Perth to raise her own family she renewed her relationship with paint and brush, and fell in love with painting all over again.
Stephanie has been painting children for the last three years and continues to be inspired and excited by her subjects. She wants to mark out a space that is separate from the fast paced photographic world we live in; to create a beautiful object, an heirloom, a quiet moment in a child’s history and our memories of them.
