Stephanie Lenchard-Warren is a fine artist and illustrator whose work explores the self in nature as well as the nature within the self. She is known for her expressive figurative work of women and animals incorporating ballpoint pen, oil paint, and bare wood.
Enamored by the natural world around her, Stephanie began making art inspired by her interaction with nature and animals at a very young age. She attended the Art Institute of Chicago's Early College Program at the age of 16 and holds a BFA in Painting and Creative Writing from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Drawing from animal mythologies and archetypal histories, Stephanie’s work underscores our inherent connections with animal life and the roles their personas play in our own identities.
