About Me
Stephanie Thomas of Cleveland, Ohio has channeled her everyday life into art. She believes that art brings broad connections between diversity and change. Art also provides stress relief, promotes balance, and better thinking.
Stephanie’s story has reached many through her bold and breathtaking pieces. Her story has contributed vastly to her creativity and has allowed for her to channel a deeper level of connectedness through each unique piece of art.
Creativity has always been a major piece of Stephanie’s life. You have to think creatively to be who you are. Choosing your life path requires a great deal of imagination. Your life is the canvas for everything you live and feel. Your future can be brought to life by whatever form of art that you use.
Stephanie started her first business in October 2015 shortly after graduating college, with the intent to help others grow and market their businesses. She listened to everyone tell her what the next steps should look like after college, but still didn’t feel aligned.
While working multiple jobs with ample hours, having a strong work ethic, and giving her all in every “job” — this only made Stephanie realize that each job was just that…”a job”.
Stephanie has always believed in having multiple streams of income. Stephanie also believes that doing what you love holds a major level of importance. While her philosophy is one that she wanted to model, she was not living in her true intentions of doing so. After finding a great deal of dissatisfaction with how much she exerted her energy and ultimately sacrificed her body, Stephanie realized that she was beginning to hate what she truly thought she was passionate about.
After three years she was doing great and had built an amazing, faithful clientele. Experiencing change Stephanie took a leap of faith by moving out of state to gain more knowledge, confidence and to grow from others outside of her hometown.
When returning home Stephanie’s life took quite a few major twists and turns causing her to lose focus tremendously. While Stephanie was passionate about her dreams she never imagined that a multitude of family issues would cause a major detour in her journey.
From a horrible car accident, to losing some of the closest family members that helped her become the person she is today, to losing support, becoming a mother, raising two young children and still trying to balance a normal life;
Stephanie had to change how much she really understood self-care.
Stephanie made art her top priority. It helped her channel all of her pain, strength and even became the therapy that she needed. Painting has become a regular way to communicate for Stephanie.
Stephanie knows that when her art is placed in someone’s home, office, or even gifted to someone it connects them with the energy that she’s produced when creating it. Even when someone comments on how the art can be interpreted, it keeps Stephanie feeling her BEST.
Being full of ideas can be difficult to understand without knowing what your niche is. Channeling the things that you’ve been through and have yet to face can allow you to live life abundantly and this is what art does for Stephanie.
