About the Item
A one a kind 18" x 25" Abstract Acrylic & Mixed Media on Canvas Painting executed by artist Stefanie Bales. A certificate of authenticity will be provided upon its purchase or delivery.
All of Stefanie Bales’ work reflects on the surreal, ethereal, and metaphysical state of daydreaming, and the fragmented ways in which we perceive memories. Bales draws and expands upon this feeling in her practice, creating majestic scenes that feel simultaneously personal and ubiquitous. Her work reminds us of that collective feeling that we all share when witnessing a magnificent sunset — the profound acknowledgment that we all share the same sky. None of the landscapes are geographically specific, rather, they are composites of numerous topologies blended harmoniously into one larger “place”.
Regarding the creation of her pieces, Bales explains, “I’ve developed and honed an original process that I use to compose much of my work. My process is similar to collage, but instead of cut and paste, I’m using an original ‘ink transfer’ process to transfer bits of texture and imagery onto the canvas which I then paint within, over, and around, responding intuitively to the transferred piece as I continue to build out imagery and form the larger narrative and composition. My aim is that the viewer sees the work as a whole, and it isn’t until further investigation that the incongruities that give it its ‘dream-like’ qualities are noticed.”
Her works are Bales’ attempt to make tangible and permanent all of the magnificent and ineffable things in life that are so easy to miss or to take for granted.
Stefanie Bales is an award-winning Fine Artist, muralist, and boutique gallery owner- all of which are umbrellaed under her multifaceted creative brand, Stefanie Bales Fine Art. SBFA offers original Fine Art painting, murals, a custom home and accessories product line, educational services, and creative consulting for both residential and commercial clients across the globe. Originally from Philadelphia, PA, Bales moved to San Diego, CA after graduating Cum Laude with a BFA degree in painting from the University of Delaware’s honors program. After a year working for a La Jolla based Art Deco company, she returned to school to pursue her Masters degree in Educational Psychology and Art Therapy. Her time working with students with neurodiversities incidentally inspired her to begin exploring the visual representation of neurosciences and human subconsciousness, evident in her most recent bodies of work. Bales taught at a local design college for over a decade prior to opening her gallery Stefanie Bales Fine Art, in the heart of Little Italy, San Diego, and pursuing her art practice and career full-time. Both Bales’ fine art and mural work have become staples in the San Diego community, with local clients that include the San Diego Downtown Partnership, Balboa Park, Belmont Park, Ansun BioPharma, Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa, San Diego Museum of Art, Longfellow Real Estate, Greystar Real Estate Partners, and the Flower Hill Mall. Her work has been published extensively and is in both public and private collections across the country and internationally.

Seven Apples: abstract still life interior painting, red apples on green & gray
By Mat Tomezsko
Located in Bryn Mawr, PA
This is an original sill life interior painting of fruit (apples) with a geometric fractured composition. The artist made the painting one section at a time. When working on one section, the artist would block off the rest of the composition so the objects and background needed to be placed again. By building the composition this way, the background and table appear at different levels and the shapes don't quite align. These imperfections convey a sense of passing time. In each section, the tone of the light changes, and the shadows switch directions. The apples and geometric shapes were chosen as much for metaphorical value as for aesthetics. A seemingly simple arrangement in a familiar painting genre contains a depth of observation, artistic choices, and interpretation.
This painting is signed and dated on the back. Includes all hanging hardware and ready to install; no need for additional framing.
