 Stephanie grew up in Florida and Vermont riding, drawing, and loving horses. She started art classes at age 8 and horses were always her favorite subject. Graduating from the University of Hawaii in 1982 with a Bachelor of Fine Art in Design and Photography, and from there moved to San Francisco to freelance. Her love of horses kept calling her back and in 1992 she moved to Nevada where she met her husband, performance horse trainer Gary Long. Since then, her life has revolved around horses and art. Helping train cutting and cow horses, has been a major inspiration for her.

 A bold use of color and shallow depth of field is reminiscent of Stephanie’s work in design and photography. While working mainly in soft pastel, her lifelong love of horses and daily interaction are evident in the intimate details she portrays in her paintings. She enjoys making a bold statement of a subtle point, bringing attention to the littlest things which evoke the essence and energy of the subject matter. 

 Now living in Tuolumne, CA. Stephanie continues to make western art, enjoys pet portraiture and also paints her original designs on leather purses, and makes one-of-a kind beaded jewelry. She has won numerous awards and is a Signature Member of Pastel Society of the West Coast, Associate member of the Pastel Society of America.
