Like a pirate wearing an eyepatch, artist Stevie Bee doesn't have depth perception.
They like:
- focusing on 2d works, texture, patterns, strong contrast, bold colors and forms
- using art to turn dreams into reality
- combining traditional printmaking with modern tools
- when art is approachable, playful, and curious
- when tools are sharp and carve with little effort, with a satisfying fling at the end
They have a compulsion to make stuff.
They don't make art to make money, they make money to make art.
Stevie Bee's roots are in Madison, Wisconsin.
An original print is made from a hand-created matrix, such as a carved lino block. Ink is rolled onto the block, paper is placed on top, and each print is pulled by hand. Small differences in pressure, ink, and paper make each one part of the original edition.
That is different from a reproduction print, like a printed copy of a watercolor or drawing. A watercolor print usually starts as one finished painting that is photographed or scanned and then reproduced. A hand-pulled lino print is the artwork's original form.
