Stephano

The artist known as Stephano was born October 4, 1948 in Inchon, Gyunggi-do. His passion for art was evident at a very young age and soon he became the student of many prominent artists. He developed his impressionistic technique and color tone and set out to master the uncompromising medium of oil painting.
His brushwork allows subtle harmony that speaks of the perfect mastery of his art.
For decades he has painted landscapes inspired by studies of Southern France and Great Britain. His images are never literal transcriptions of what he has seen. Instead they focus more on the memory of a landscape than the actual experience. Stephano found in the countryside the inspiration that ignited his longstanding passion for painting.
Now he works in his own studio to create the charm and poetry of the Old World countryside with the influence of master works by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot and Gustave Courbet.
