Stephanie J. Witte 
Sculptor






Stephanie J. Witte lives in Springfield. Missouri. She has a lifetime teaching certificate from the University of Missouri, her alma mater for undergrad and graduate work. After a period of teaching Art and English in public and private schools, she devoted full time to her art. Until that time, and continuing, she was a free-lance illustrator doing work depicting confederate weaponry, uniforms, soldiers, etc., as well as wildlife material for classroom materials.

She also created illustrations and three-dimensional science projects for various state Conservation Education programs. Those materials related to fish, insects, wildflowers, and regional endangered species.

Like many artists, she changed the focus of her art to different mediums. It now includes textile arts (art quilts and figurals) and gourds and the unique possibilities this sustainable/renewable medium is able to achieve.

The bulk of her work is in mixed media sculptural gourd creations. Many pieces are large, sculptural assemblages, some over six feet tall. Stephanie has taken a common medium and raised it to uncommon standards.

Her work is in a number of private collections. She is represented by the Waverly House Gallery in Springfield, Missouri and Taylor's Contemporanea Gallery in Hot Springs, AK.

"It is my belief that art is quiet, challenging people to notice it all around them. Some of the most beautiful art is simple, its impression and impact immediate and no less eloquent than literature."
