Spring Rainbow
I have enjoyed the works of Bill Stephens so much that I
have dedicated this entire page
to his work, that I might share his
inspirational art with you!
Michele Anderson
Hello, my name is Bill Stephens. I was born in the Bavarian
Alps, and as a young boy, I was inspired by the art in the
surrounding churches, museums, and castles of Bavaria.
I grew to have a love of art early on, but as life would have
it, I ended up doing everything but art in the many decades that
followed.
I only produced a couple of works in the first 50 years of my
life.
It wasn't until all that I had worked for suddenly evaporated,
and my life "ended" in the most dramatic way, that I decided to
get creative. Adversity is often what is needed to challenge us
to take a different road. This new road also resulted in a
wonderful marriage which was very welcomed.
What an artist creates always reflects where his heart truly is,
and has been. Any work is no greater in depth than that which
resides within the artist. An artist exposes whatever value is
within when they commit to a work. The only limits to art rest
within the individual. Artists should strive to reach far beyond
what they "think" they can do. As with relationships, art is a
journey of the heart which demands commitment to depth.
I have personally sought to stay true to the "fidelity" of what
Christ has magnificently created. Since almost all imagery is
borrowed from the realism of creation, I believe that man is
never free to cheapen what Christ has imagined, but ought to try
to compliment what has been made, in keeping with being made in
His Image. I have come to credit my own talents to Christ's
thoughtfulness as well.
