Bio and Shows with Bethany Stephan

Bethany Stephan is an American painter born in Hawaii and currently residing in Arizona. She creates landscapes and figurative paintings, working in oil on panels - drawn from her most precious memories of Hawaiian beaches with family and friends, or hiking the canyon lands of Arizona. The theme of her work is a combination of nostalgia, environmental awareness, and a desire to capture and preserve the natural beauty of the world in her paintings.

Bethany was introduced to art and oil painting by her artist grandmother, whose knowledge and inherited tools have proven themselves useful to today. Many happy afternoons were spent painting side by side and learning techniques from her.

Following her creative upbringing, creating art and formulating her artistic voice have been a constant while working as an IT Professional for 25 years. Painting was an important outlet and allowed her to improve her skills over that time, before Bethany decided to pursue painting professionally in 2020.
