Earth Stories by Stefanie Bales

    Filter
      Earth Stories is a curated collection of some of Stefanie's most renowned Fine Artworks. Stefanie's land and seascapes invoke whimsy and serenity and the universal feeling that we, as humans, collectively draw from nature and the sea. None of Stefanie's geographies are specific- she creates all of her "dreamscapes" using an original intuitive, mixed media process. Using acrylic paint and what she's named "ink transfers," she creates (without a larger reference) whimsical, surreal, and often hyperreal compositions. Employing multiple principles of Gestalt Perceptual Psychology related to scale, perspective, horizon line, light source, time, and so forth. All of Stefanie’s work investigates the idea of the collective subconscious, and how aesthetics play a significant role in our memories. Her soft, sophisticated color palettes and the atmospheric, dreamlike qualities evident in her work are the standouts of her signature style.
