Business name: Stephanie Lester Fibre Alchemist
I have had a life-long connection with animals — from the first family Boxer dog that protected me in my crib to the magnificence of Africa. It seemed like an unkind joke that I was unable to draw or paint this love that I felt … until I found sculpture. My love was in 3D! The medium of fibre allows me to express everything that I see and feel. I start with technical studies of the skeleton, muscles and skin/coat, and then I am free to get to know their character.
