♀︎ About the Artist
Marie Stephens
Marie (Westerhof) Stephens is a 21st century living artist who is determined to shatter the myth that artists do not become successful until after they die. She believes this is an old mindset that is slowly fading into art history. Marie has joined thousands of living artists who are making a living with their art, while they are living.
Becoming a Living Legend
Known for her spunk, her bravery, and her tenacity to never give up, Marie has persevered as an artist since publicly launching her art career in 2017 with her first solo art show. Deeply inspired by the impressionist, Vincent Van Gogh, and many of his peers, Marie's goal in life is to create art that focuses on the beauty of nature, and life's simple pleasures; the way humans interact with those beautiful things.
Where there is darkness, her hope is to bring light.
Through her landscapes, seascapes, still lifes, floral studies, and nature inspired abstract color studies, she hopes to provide others with a bright escape into the light during times when the dark harshness of reality gets to be too much for our souls to withstand.
