As a creative, one of my favorite things in the world is to step into the creative space of another. I love when an artist shares their space, how they use it, a peek into their favorite tools and even what they are currently working on. I hope you will join me for the An Artist Studio series where different artists will welcome us into their space!
I hope it will encourage you to cherish your own creating space. I started on the kitchen table, built our business in an unfinished basement, filmed our first courses in a transformed dinning room, create now in a big space and know that I will find a creative space no matter where we go next. The space you have is perfect if you are showing up and creating in it!
Previous studio tours: Sandi Hester, Diane Reeves, Jan McCarthy, Sheila Atchley, Aimee Irel Bishop and Julia Muller.
This month we have been welcomed into the studio of Stephanie Lee.

If you enjoyed this video and getting to know Stephanie Lee, you will LOVE taking an online course with her.
I believe that our creative power enables us to make not just beautiful things, but also a beautiful life. As an artist and creative mentor, I merge mixed media and encaustic medium to create luminous art that invites others to honor the complex stories while also simplifying (and elevating) the continuing stories they tell themselves about themselves. It’s all about inviting a spirit of peace AND exuberant trust, heartache AND hope, defining moments AND recreating yourself anew.
I am the creator of over a dozen popular online art courses and eBooks which provide easy, step-by-step guidance on how to improve your metalsmithing skills in my signature “homesteader” style, how to combine plaster, paint, and encaustic medium in two-dimensional work, and how to create original sculpted forms with plaster and found objects.
Stephanie has a brand new online course, The Art & Life of Contrast and you can read more about it HERE.
What an inspiring tour! Hearing your descriptions of various studio spaces gave me permission to continue my pursuits. I often think I should focus on only one thing — but that’s not true. Thank you from a friend who knits and sews and writes and sketches. Blessings on all your words and works.
Beautiful space! Your creativity will thrive surrounded by such inspiration.
Thank you for letting us inside your space! I loved the tour.
Thank you for letting us inside your space! I loved the tour.
Such a beautiful, organized space! I aspire for my studio space at home to look as organized and user friendly as yours.
I’m in the last week of a 3 1/2 month artist residency with an opening on the 18th! So much left to do in this last week.
When it ends I’m planning to do a huge clean out of my space so that it works better for me. Thanks so much for the inspiration 🧡
Wonderful Stephanie…Space for Soul Expressions! Fabric and Paint…is this a possible course?
This was a beautiful tour! Thank you, Stephanie…so excited for you and your new space! I will be moving into a basement studio, with lovely light, and it is about this size. So, I was happy to see how you separated the different areas, for each purpose. Very inspiring! Thank you!
You have inspired my getting into my (about 400 square feet too!) studio and reframing my idea of its use! I’ve loved taking classes with you and hope to get a chance to study with you again soon!
