We are very excited to welcome Stephanie’s Creative Courage class to OAS!

This is a facilitated studio series that focuses on artistic exploration, finding inspiration, and nurturing your creative consciousness. Supported by a collaborative environment, students will be introduced to techniques in composition, colour, and expression. Bring your favorite supplies — from drawing to painting to mixed media, from landscape to still life to figurative — and more. Chose your own adventure – whether it’s a brand new project, or one already in progress that you would like support working on. One of the sessions during the series will introduce an unconventional approach or technique that students might wish to add to their pieces. We will also discuss the techniques of a few chosen artists.

This mentorship series is perfect for people who have taken a few beginners’ drawing or painting classes.

STEPHANIE SCHIRM is an accomplished fine artist, apparel designer, and fashion illustrator. Inspired by the variability and curvaceousness of the human form—and equipped with a fearlessly vivid palette—Schirm expresses her signature aesthetic through a variety of media, industries, channels, and contexts. The dynamic tension between how her work looks (bright, sensual, kinetic, elemental) and feels (soothing, ethereal, meandering, enigmatic) gives it unusually broad appeal, from churches and galleries to retailers and manufacturers.

In addition to her work as an artist, designer, and illustrator, Schirm is a seasoned creative executive. As the one-time owner and operator of an apparel line, she quickly learned how to manage vendors and suppliers, clients and employees, finances and operations, logistics and fulfilment—skills that quickly and successfully transferred to the worlds of team management, production supervision, quality assurance, and sales-force training.

Last but not least, Schirm is a passionate, committed, and tireless advocate, educator, and organizer for the arts. Whether inspiring young children to express themselves through paint and brush… or as the instructor of a college-level fashion-illustration course… or with theatrical producers on a historically accurate staging… her ability to explain and demonstrate style, technique, process, and methodology makes her a valuable asset to art programming offered by charitable, educational, liturgical, and institutional organisations.
