Original Oil Portrait Work

As a body of work, these portraits were created as part of Stephen’s Heroine Series, presented at several solo exhibitions. These pieces originated from photo shoots of everyday local career women, students, actresses, singers, engineers, artists, mothers – which Stephen then transformed into larger than life “Heroine” on canvas. Each large scale oil painting was completed analog, using traditional oil painting methods on gallery canvas.
