Stephanie Thomson

After exhibiting a great interest in drawing from a very young age, Stephanie has devoted her life to its pursuit. Rather than entering a traditional art program upon graduating high school, Stephanie began seeking out today's leading artists and apprenticing under them personally. This course of study has taken her across the country from Vermont to Arizona, studying under artists including Sherrie McGraw, CW Mundy, Michelle Dunaway, Robert Liberace, and Johanna Harmon. Stephanie has been recognized by The Portrait Society of America, The American Impressionist Society, The Oil Painters of America, and Southwest Art Magazine. She currently resides in Indiana, painting and practicing the sport of falconry with a red tailed hawk named after Swedish artist, Anders Zorn.
