In the vast outback of Australia, frolicking in the vast fields
and meadows a young Steph realised her affinity for the natural
creations of the environment. Enlightened by her new found
passion she found a way to weave beetles and bugs like a young
Simone from the lion king, learnt to procure plant based food
and generally be a sick one.
Miss Stephanie is a Melbourne-based artist who specialises in
realistic insect paintings. She takes inspiration from the
natural world and her studies to create beautifully detailed
watercolour paintings. After completing a Bachelors degree in
Biological science Miss Stephanie travelled the world with her
sketch book, discovering her distinctive style. After spending 2
years travelling the world and drawing what she saw, she
returned to Melbourne and began working on her passion for art.
When not painting Stephanie is usually working on her diploma in
horticulture with a goal to work in habitat restoration. Miss
Stephanie's paintings have been sold around the world and are a
feature in the homes of entomophiles everywhere! Fans of Miss
Stephanie are impressed by her ability to use watercolour to
create different effects that turn her insects from paintings to
almost real. Follow Miss Stephanie on
