Episode 22: Stefanie Bales on Her Ink Transfer Landscape Paintings + Creative Process

Art Talk With Painter Stefanie Bales

This week, I’m chatting with painter Stefanie Bales.  She lives and creates right here in San Diego, California, and I’ve loved getting to know her in person at our local Rising Tide meetups. Stefanie paints in several different mediums, but in this conversation we talk in detail about her gorgeous ink transfer paintings.  These pieces are SO unique and we dig into all the details of her creative process!  Part painting and part collage, Stefanie’s paintings draw you in with their soft rainbow of colors, life-like details and dreamy landscapes.  Be sure to pull up Stefanie’s work while you’re listening - you can find her on Instagram @stefaniebalesfineart.

In this episode, Stefanie shares all about her work, inspiration, process, favorite art materials and more!
